Ninja: Skip generating empty phony rules

Ninja generator ensures that all custom commands being target
dependencies are run before other source compilations. However in case
there are no such dependencies it currently generates empty phony rules
which clutter the build graph.

Teach the Ninja generator to produce such rules only when necessary.
