Fix CMake integration of NMODL generation.

The code for the code-generator NMODL is itself generated from Jinja
templates. This requires CMake integration to ensure it happens
automatically.

The following has been changed about the integration:

  * The CMake code needs a list of the generated files. This list is
    stored in a CMake file and included. This file must exist before
    running `code_generator.py` to generate the NMODL code, because the
    command to generate the files needs to know which file it will be
    generating. Therefore, we split the script into two phases: one to
    generate the list of generated files, and another to generate the
    files.

  * The list of generated files depends on the build flags. Therefore,
    this file (`code_generator.cmake`) can't be checked into the Git
    repo. The `code_generator.cmake` is created during the configure
    phase, and now lives in the build directory.

  * CMake code was lifted from `src/language/CMakeLists.txt` to the
    top-level `CMakeLists.txt` to avoid any scoping issues for the
    lists of generated files.

  * Removed pattern of yielding tasks while creating a list tasks in
    favour of returning the list of tasks directly.
