Touch output files in sbox

Some tools used by genrules set the timestamp of the generated file
to an old value.  For example, when using tar to extract files it
will set the timestamp of the extracted file to the value stored in
the tar file.  This can cause unnecessary rebuilds due to output files
that are older than their inputs.  Touch output files in sbox before
moving them into the output location.

Test: m checkbuild && m checkbuild
