[PATCH] Do not always regenerate version.h

While searching to see if these always-regenerated file were causing a
cascade of slowness hurting the null build, I fixed up version.h not to
be regenerated.  

Waf is smart - the checksum of the regenerated file doesn't change,
which is why this doesn't rebuild the whole of Samba, but I wondered if
we could avoid even checking that.  

I think the patch is an improvement to correctness, but it doesn't seem
to help performance (nor BTW does doing the same to build_options.c, as
a test). 

Please review/push.

Thanks,

Andrew Bartlett
