[PATCH] gen_compile_commands.py: remove code for '\#' replacement

[Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>]

Since commit 9564a8cf422d ("Kbuild: fix # escaping in .cmd files for
future Make"), '#' in the build command is replaced with $(pound) rather
than '\#'.

Calling .replace(r'\#', '#') is only necessary when this tool is used
to parse .*.cmd files generated by Linux 4.16 or earlier, which is
unlikely happen.
