[tex4ht] [bug #276] avoid multiple runs of latex

[Michal Hoftich]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #276 (project tex4ht):

make4ht and tex4ebook support --mode option, which can influence the
compilation. If user doesn't provide his own build file, a default one is
used:

if mode=="draft" then
  Make:htlatex{}
else
  Make:htlatex{}
  Make:htlatex{}
  Make:htlatex{}
end

As the build file is a Lua script, I can imagine tat it shouldn't be so hard
to add some function which would compute checksums for selected files, compare
these with checksums from previous runs of given command (latex, biber, xindy,
etc.) and run it only when checksums changed.
