Better Incremental build for :ReactAndroid:hermes-engine (#38497)

Summary:
This fixes an issue we had with incremental compilation of `:ReactAndroid:hermes-engine`
Practically the `buildHermesC` and `configureBuildForHermes` would re-run every time as they had no input/output configured.

This breaks incremental compilation, meaning that when you want to rebuild RN-Tester, you would rebuild hermesc every time.

This fixes it for good, so we won't be rebuilding `hermesc` unless needed.

## Changelog:

[INTERNAL] - Better Incremental build for :ReactAndroid:hermes-engine

Pull Request resolved: #38497

Test Plan:
Will wait for CI to be green. Plus I've verified that those tasks don't get re-executed on subsequent builds:

Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 9.0.

You can use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings and determine if they come from your own scripts or plugins.

For more on this, please refer to https://docs.gradle.org/8.2.1/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_warnings in the Gradle documentation.
