fix(build): avoid perpetually invalidating build script inputs

Repeated production builds recompiled build-info, GTK and their dependents
because build scripts watched missing optional files and generated outputs.
Watch packed-refs only when present and the prebuilt GTK bundle only when
consumed. Loose refs remain watched so packing them refreshes Git inputs.

Invoke glib-compile-resources directly instead of using a helper that also
watches generated XML and UI files. The existing resources directory watch
covers their source inputs. Remove the unused helper dependency and document
the build input rules.

Test Plan:
- Run cargo build --profile production three times; repeats compile nothing.
- Run cargo clippy, cargo clippy --benches and cargo clippy --tests.
- Run cargo +nightly fmt and repeat all three Clippy checks.
