Currently, when the backend creates the files it creates, it doesn't track what it created. If for some reason (configuration switch, moz.build change, etc.) some of those files are not created anymore, they are left in the objdir.
Depends on: 930899

Hardware: x86_64 → All
The backend.RecursiveMakefile filename change is because as no moz.build is changed here, without a file name change, the list would not be filled until there is a moz.build change. (or a configuration change, or anything else touching backend files)
(And the .built filename doesn't really match the new purpose)
