[PATCH v2 2/5] Makefile: rename scripts in-place, don't clobber

Message-ID: <patch-2.6-49dbd54d0ff-20210329T161723Z-avarab@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To: <cover-0.6-00000000000-20210329T161723Z-avarab@gmail.com>

Change the rules that generate auxiliary files such as GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS, *.s and other non-object files to use the same in-place move pattern as we use for object files as of the preceding commit.

Unlike the change in the preceding commit, this one isn't isn't needed for AIX portability. I think it makes sense to do this for consistency, we'll now use the same pattern for object and non-object generation.

It'll also guard against any weird issues with e.g. a command that wants to read GIT-PERL-DEFINES to generate one of the %.perl scripts racing with either a concurrent instance of "make" that has partially updated the file, or test-lib.sh dying with some particularly weird error because GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS was partway through being updated when it ran.
