#14170: Stop touching "installed" files when nothing has been done

This (from `sage-spkg`) is not how `make` is supposed to be used:
{{{
if [ $INFO -eq 0 -a $FORCE -eq 0 -a -f "$INSTALLED/$PKG_NAME" ]; then
echo "Package $PKG_NAME is already installed."
echo "Use 'sage -f $PKG_SRC' to force a reinstallation."
# Touch installed file such that "make" considers it up-to-date.
touch "$INSTALLED/$PKG_NAME"
exit 0
fi
}}}
When nothing has to be done, you're supposed to do nothing. Touching files
may trigger other rebuilds,...
