build: fix WriteFile and addCSourceFiles not adding LazyPath deps

Adds a missing call to addLazyPathDependenciesOnly in
std.Build.Module.addCSourceFiles.  Also fixes an issue in
std.Build.Step.WriteFile where it wasn't updating all the GeneratedFile
instances for every directory.  To fix the second issue, I removed
all the GeneratedFile instances and now all files/directories reference
the steps main GeneratedFile via sub paths.
