Arnout Engelen cb757f2663 build: make generated source files reproducible #21586
Problem:
Build is not reproducible, because generated source files (.c/.h/) are not
deterministic, mostly because Lua pairs() is unordered by design (for security).

Solution:
- Update the code generation scripts to be deterministic.
    - That is only a partial solution: the exported function
      (funcs_metadata.generated.h) and ui event
      (ui_events_metadata.generated.h) metadata have some mpack'ed
      tables, which are not serialized deterministically.
    - As a workaround, introduce `PRG_GEN_LUA` cmake setting, so you can
      inject a modified build of luajit (with LUAJIT_SECURITY_PRN=0)
      that preserves table order.
    - Longer-term we should change the mpack'ed data structure so it no
      longer uses tables keyed by strings.

Closes #20124
