In SetupBuildLauncherBody, instead of constructing the variable `$(MODULE)_INCLUDED_LAUNCHERS`, declare dependencies for `$(LAUNCHER_LIST)`, something like this:

Hm. I put it there since it was the only place where we could be sure we know *all* launchers for a module. I could have each launcher add itself to the list, but then I either need to check if it is already there, or we will just append to the list each time we rebuild. And we risk a race when several launchers build at the same time.
