Fix REUSE compliance failure in gen_hedley_undef_check.cmake

The generated file's embedded banner contains the literal text
'SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT' as part of the *content* being written
to hedley_undef.hpp, not as this .cmake script's own REUSE header (it
is already covered by the blanket 'Files: *' rule in .reuse/dep5).

The reuse tool matched that embedded line as an SPDX tag for the
script itself and failed to parse the trailing 'MIT\n")' as a valid
SPDX License Expression, breaking ci_reuse_compliance. Wrap the
embedded banner in REUSE-IgnoreStart/REUSE-IgnoreEnd comments, as
recommended by the tool's own diagnostic output.
