Avoid overwriting unchanged output files in genbki.pl and Gen_fmgrtab.pl.

Avoid overwriting unchanged output files in genbki.pl and Gen_fmgrtab.pl. If a particular output file already exists with the contents it should have, leave it alone, so that its mod timestamp is not advanced. In builds using --enable-depend, this can avoid the need to recompile .c files whose included files didn't actually change. It's not clear whether it saves much of anything for users of ccache; but the cost of doing the file comparisons seems to be negligible, so we might as well do it. For developers using the MSVC toolchain, this will create a regression: msvc/Solution.pm will sometimes run genbki.pl or Gen_fmgrtab.pl unnecessarily. I'll look into fixing that separately.
