Speed up the code generator for exec_script.

The code generator doesn't need to load the JSON file to compute the
dependencies our outputs for a codegen target. To better integrate in
noop builds, the lazy-write of generated file is removed because it led
to the code generator running even in noop build (the timestamp of
generated file not being updated).

Also document what could be done to avoid exec_script calls for the Dawn
code generator.
