Changelog Entry

Description
The way I was generating version info headers with phony targets was not working properly on a single build for some reason. If you made a git commit, the version would take 2 builds in a row to update.
This PR makes sure to actually generate those files on every
make
invocation, beforemake
decides what it actually needs to do, and seems to work properly within a single build.
