std.Build.Step.Run: Enable passing (generated) file content as args
Adds `addFileContentArg` and `addPrefixedFileContentArg` to pass the content
of a file with a lazy path as an argument to a `std.Build.Step.Run`.
This enables replicating shell `$()` / cmake `execute_process` with `OUTPUT_VARIABLE`
as an input to another `execute_process` in conjuction with `captureStdOut`/`captureStdErr`.
To also be able to replicate `$()` automatically trimming trailing newlines and cmake
`OUTPUT_STRIP_TRAILING_WHITESPACE`, this patch adds an `options` arg to those functions
which allows specifying the desired handling of surrounding whitespace.
The `options` arg also allows to specify a custom `basename` for the output. e.g.
to add a file extension (concrete use case: Zig `@import()` requires files to have a
`.zig`/`.zon` extension to recognize them as valid source files).
