    libstdc++: Do not overwrite module definition files during build [PR126786]
    
    As described in the bug report, when compilation of std.cc or
    std.compat.cc fails we overwrite the source file with an empty file, and
    then compile that (so that bootstrap doesn't fail). Then when the module
    definition files are installed, we install the empty file.
    
    We should install the original source, not an empty file. We can create
    an empty file and compile it, but leave the original source untouched so
    that it can still be installed.

            PR libstdc++/126786
            * src/c++23/Makefile.am (empty.cc): New target.
            (std.lo, std.o, std.compat.lo, std.compat.o): Use empty.cc as
            fallback instead of overwriting original sources.
            * src/c++23/Makefile.in: Regenerate.
