Make it possible to re-use the internal logic of drupal_rewrite_settings() in other installation processes

drupal_rewrite_settings is an abomination on god-fearing configuration formats. That being said, it would be a little less heinous and reusable if it would at least return the contents of its evil-regex-doing instead of writing to conf_path() . '/settings.php';

Very minor change, but understood if it doesn't make it in.
