Philip Oakley 343fbf28fa contrib/buildsystems: redirect errors of the dry run into a log file ...

Rather than swallowing the errors, it is better to have them in a file.

To make it obvious what this is about, use the file name
'msvc-build-makedryerrors.txt'.

Further, if the output is empty, simply delete that file. As we target
Git for Windows' SDK (which, unlike its predecessor msysGit, offers
Perl versions newer than 5.8), we can use the quite readable syntax
`if -f -z $ErrsFile` (available in Perl >=5.10).

Note that the file will contain the new values of the GIT_VERSION
and GITGUI_VERSION if they were generated by the make file. They
are omitted if the release is tagged and indentically defined in
their respective GIT_VERSION_GEN file DEF_VER variables.
