Meson: check for pg_config_paths.h left over from make

Meson: check for pg_config_paths.h left over from make The meson build scripts attempt to find files left over from configure and fail, mentioning that "make maintainer-clean" should be run to remove these. This seems to have been done for files generated from configure. pg_config_paths.h is generated during the actual make build, so seems to have been missed. This would result in compilation using the wrong pg_config_paths.h file. Here we just add this file to generated_sources_ac so that meson errors out if pg_config_paths.h exists. Likely this wasn't noticed before because make maintainer-clean will remove pg_config_paths.h, however, people using the MSVC build scripts are more likely to run into issues and they have to manually remove these files and pg_config_paths.h wasn't listed as a conflicting file to remove in the meson log.
