build: also throw hash-mismatch errors if buildMode == bmCheck
This actually bit me quite recently in `nixpkgs` because I assumed that
`nix-build --check` would also error out if hashes don't match anymore[1]
and so I wrongly assumed that I couldn't reproduce the mismatch error.

The fix is rather simple, during the output registration a so-called
`delayedException` is instantiated e.g. if a FOD hash-mismatch occurs.
However, in case of `nix-build --check` (or `--rebuild` in case of `nix
build`), the code-path where this exception is thrown will never be
reached.

By adding that check to the if-clause that causes an early exit in case
of `bmCheck`, the issue is gone. Also added a (previously failing)
test-case to demonstrate the problem.

[1] https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/139238, the underlying issue
    was that `nix-prefetch-git` returns different hashes than `fetchgit`
    because the latter one fetches submodules by default.
