busybox: always start do_compile with orig config files
When compiling busybox a second time (e.g. with `compile -f`), busybox
can use an altered autoconf.h file for compiling, which can ultimately
produces different and unwanted binaries.
This can produce errors like this one:
ERROR: busybox-1.35.0-r0 do_package: Error executing a python function in exec_func_python() autogenerated:
The stack trace of python calls that resulted in this exception/failure was:
File: 'exec_func_python() autogenerated', lineno: 2, function: <module>

0104:do_compile_ptest_base[dirs] = "${B}"
Exception: FileExistsError: [Errno 17] File exists: '/bin/busybox.suid' -> '…/busybox/1.35.0-r0/package/usr/lib/busybox/ptest/bin/login'
This happens because ALTERNATIVE:busybox contains `/bin/login` twice,
initially that's because `/bin/login` is present in both
busybox.links.suid and busybox.links.nosuid. The reason for that is
because of the altered autoconf.h.
Steps to reproduce above error:
<add ptest to distro configs>
bitbake busybox -c clean
bitbake busybox -c package -f
bitbake busybox -c compile -f
bitbake busybox -c package -f
This patch guards against potential bugs by:
- making a backup of .config and autoconf.h that have matching
timestamps.
- make sure do_compile always starts with these files.
- restore .config and autoconf.h at the end of do_compile.
