Write ``<content>`` into a file called ``<filename>``. If the file does
not exist, it will be created. If the file already exists, ``WRITE``
mode will overwrite it and ``APPEND`` mode will append to the end.
(If the file is a build input, use the :command:`configure_file` command
to update the file only when its content changes.)
Any directories in the path specified by ``<filename>`` that do not
exist will be created.
If the file is a build input, use the :command:`configure_file` command
to update the file only when its content changes.
