Generate empty .clang-format-ignore before running tests

Followup to #136022, this ensures formatting tests are run with an empty .clang-format-ignore in their root directory, to prevent failures if the file also exists higher in the tree.

ah yes, the build directory can be outside of the source directory, lgtm. still good to keep the other PR though so outside .clang-format-ignore files don't leak into clang-format used inside llvm-project
