Move creation of context.root out of Context()

On btrfs systems, we're unnecessarily creating a subvolume only to
remove it again immediately afterwards if we're building from a cached
image. So let's move the creation of root outside of Context() so
we can only create it as a subvolume after we've potentially checked
caches first.
