Issue body

Currently Snapcraft doesn't notice YAML changes if a given step has already run-- it simply says that it already ran and halts execution. This PR makes progress on LP: [#1477904](https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapcraft/+bug/1477904) by changing that for the strip step, where now if one changes the `snap` keyword in the YAML, strip will notice that it's out of date and automatically clean itself and re-run.
