Cherry picks:
+ ff30a73: Turn --legacy_external_runfiles back on by default
+ aeee3b8: Fix delete[] warning on fsevents.cc
Incompatible changes:
- The --cwarn command line option is not supported anymore. Use --copt instead.
New features:
- On OSX, --watchfs now uses FsEvents to be notified of changes from the filesystem (previously, this flag had no effect on OS X).
- add support for the '-=', '*=', '/=', and'%=' operators to skylark. Notably, we do not support '|=' because the semantics of skylark sets are sufficiently different from python sets.
Important changes:
- Use singular form when appropriate in blaze's test result summary message.
- Added supported for Android NDK revision 11
- --objc_generate_debug_symbols is now deprecated.
- swift_library now generates an Objective-C header for its @objc interfaces.
- new_objc_provider can now set the USES_SWIFT flag.
- objc_framework now supports dynamic frameworks.
- Symlinks in zip files are now unzipped correctly by http_archive, download_and_extract, etc.
- swift_library is now able to import framework rules such as objc_framework.
- Adds "jre_deps" attribute to j2objc_library.
- Release apple_binary rule, for creating multi-architecture ("fat") objc/cc binaries and libraries, targeting ios platforms.
- Aspects documentation added.
- The --ues_isystem_for_includes command line option is not supported anymore.
- global function 'provider' is removed from .bzl files. Providers can only be accessed through fields in a 'target' object.
Baseline: 5a2dd7a
Incompatible changes:
- All repositories are now directly under the x.runfiles directory in the runfiles tree (previously, external repositories were at x.runfiles/main-repo/external/other-repo. This simplifies handling remote repository runfiles considerably, but will break existing references to external repository runfiles. Furthermore, if a Bazel project does not provide a workspace name in the WORKSPACE file, Bazel will now default to using main as the workspace name (instead of "", as previously). The repository's runfiles will appear under x.runfiles/main/.
- Bazel does not embed protocol buffer-related rules anymore.
- It is now an error for a cc rule's includes attribute to point to the workspace root.
- Bazel warns if a cc rule's includes attribute points out of third_party.
- Removed cc_* attributes: abi / abi_deps. Use select() instead.
New features:
- select({"//some:condition": None }) is now possible (this "unsets" the attribute).
Important changes:
- java_import now allows its 'jars' attribute to be empty.
- adds crunch_png attribute to android_binary
- Replace --java_langtools, --javabuilder_top, --singlejar_top, --genclass_top, and --ijar_top with java_toolchain.{javac,javabuilder,singlejar,genclass,ijar}
- External repository correctness fix: adding a new file/directory as a child of a new_local_repository is now noticed.
- iOS apps are signed with get-task-allow=1 unless building with -c opt.
- Generate debug symbols (-g) is enabled for all dbg builds of objc_ rules.
- Bazel's workspace name is now io_bazel. If you are using Bazel's source as an external repository, then you may want to update the name you're referring to it as or you'll begin seeing warnings about name mismatches in your code.
- Fixes integer overflow in J2ObjC sources to be Java-compatible.
- A FlagPolicy specified via the --invocation_policy flag will now match the current command if any of its commands matches any of the commands the current command inherits from, as opposed to just the current command.
- The key for the map to cc_toolchain_suite.toolchains is now a string of the form "cpu|compiler" (previously, it was just "cpu").
- Fix interaction between LIPO builds and C++ header modules.
- Ctrl-C will now interrupt a download, instead of waiting for it to finish.
- Proxy settings can now be specified in http_proxy and https_proxy environment variables (not just HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY).
- Skylark targets can now read include directories from ObjcProvider.
- Expose parameterized aspects to Skylark.
- Support alwayslink cc_library dependencies in objc binaries.
- Import cc_library dependencies in generated Xcode project.

Baseline: 19b5675
Incompatible changes:
- Skylark rules that are available from their own repository will now issue a warning when accessed through @bazel_tools.
- Set --legacy_bazel_java_test to off by default. java_test will now have a slightly different behaviour, correctly emitting XML file but, as a downside, it needs correct declaration of the test suite (see bazelbuild#1017).
- Labels in .bzl files in remote repositories will be resolved relative to their repository (instead of the repository the Skylark rule is used in).
- Renamed proto_java_library to java_proto_library. The former is now deprecated and will print out a warning when used.
- android_sdk now compiles android_jack on the fly from android_jar, which means android_jar must be a jar and android_jack is now deprecated. The Jack tools (jack, jill, resource_extractor) must be specified.
- Any project that depended on the objc_options rule will be broken. Can be fixed by adding attrs (infoplists,copts) directly to rules depending on the options.
- .aidl files correctly require import statements for types defined in the same package and the same android_library.
New features:
- Experimental Windows support is available.
- Experimental support for writing remote repository rules in Skylark is available.
- iOS ipa_post_processor attribute allows for user-defined IPA edits.
- Adds a to_json method to Skylark structs, providing conversion to JSON format.
- Native python rule can depend on skylark rule as long as skylark rule provides 'py' provider.
- When using both --verbose_failures and --sandbox_debug, Bazel prints instructions how to spawn a debugging shell inside the sandbox.
- add flag --sandbox_add_path, which takes a list of additional paths as argument and mount these paths to sandbox.
Important changes:
- @androidsdk//:org_apache_http_legacy added for the legacy Apache classes for android sdk version 23 and above.
- Genrules correctly work when used with bazel run.
- When namespace-sandbox is run with the -D (debug) flag and inside a terminal, it spawns a shell inside the sandbox to aid in debugging when the sandboxed command fails.
- Added --artifact to workspace generator for generating workspace and build file rules from artifact coodrinates.
- Specifying --experimental_android_resource_shrinking on the command line will enable a resource shrinking pass on android_binary targets that already use Proguard.
- J2ObjC updated to 1.0.1 release.
- Added "root_symlinks" and "symlinks" parameters to Skylark runfiles() method.
- You can no longer use objc_binary targets for the xctest_app attribute of an ios_test rule.
- Enable overriding jsonnet binaries and stdlib for Jsonnet rules.
- mount target of /etc/resolv.conf if it is a symlink.
- Tests that failed to build because execution was halted no longer print their status.
- Bazel warns if a cc rule's includes attribute contains up-level references that escape its package.
- Add repository_ctx.download and repository_ctx.download_and_extract function.
Baseline: 9e100ac
Incompatible changes:
- ObjC compile actions for J2ObjC-translated code now only has access to headers from the java deps of the associated original java rule. These compile actions no longer takes the compiler options specified in "copts" attribute on objc_binary/ios_test rules. J2ObjC dead code removal (enabled through flag "--j2objc_dead_code_removal") now happens after ObjC compilation.
- maven_jar no longer supports separate artifact_id, group_id, and verison fields. This information should be provided in the artifact field, instead.
New features:
- Better support for toolchains that don't have a dynamic linker.
- build_file_content attribute added to new_git_repository, new_http_archive, and new_local_repository.
- Add support for .tar.bz2 archives to http_archive rules.
Important changes:
- The --skyframe flag is no longer available for the build command.
- The --artifacts flag was removed from the dump command.
- The sha256 attribute is now optional (although recommended!) for remote repository rules.
- Add instrumented file provider support to Skylark rules.
- Add imports attribute to native Python rules.
- Allow overriding -gsplit-dwarf from copts.
- Improved sandbox performance on XFS filesystems.

- Removed --objc_dump_syms_binary.
- Removes --objc_gcov_binary flag.
- Remove JAVAC "Make" variable
- The startup flag --blaze_cpu is removed,
New features:
- A new java test runner that support XML output and test filtering is supported. It can be used by specifying --nolegacy_bazel_java_test or by specifying the test_class attribute on a java_test.
- Skylark aspects can now specify configuration fragment dependencies with fragments and host_fragments like rules can.
Important changes:
- Support for downloading remote resources through proxies by setting HTTP_PROXY (or HTTPS_PROXY).
- Timestamps within Android apks are removed to make apks deterministic.
- Support aggregation over existing rules in Skylark extensions through native.rules and native.rule.
- A tools/bazel script in the workspace will be executed as an opportunity to use a fixed version of Bazel (not implemented for the homebrew recipe yet).
- --noimplicit_deps and --nohost_deps work correctly for Aspect attributes.
- JDK-related targets are now available via @local_jdk (instead of @local-jdk).
- j2objc tools can now be accessed via @bazel_j2objc, not @bazel-j2objc.
- Repository rules must use names that are valid workspace names.
- [rust] Update to Rust 1.6
- Add support for .tar.xz archives to http_archive rules.
- Make C++ modules compatible with tools using --compilation_prerequisites_only
- [d] Update to DMD 2.070.0

Important changes:
- add loadfiles() query operator, to find skylark files loaded by targets.
- Added ability to declare and use aspects in Skylark.
- Skylark load statements may now reference .bzl files via build labels, in addition to paths. In particular, such labels can be used to reference Skylark files in external repositories; e.g., load("@my_external_repo//some_pkg:some_file.bzl", ...). Path-based loads are now deprecated and may be disabled in the future. Caveats: Skylark files currently do not respect package visibility; i.e., all Skylark files are effectively public. Also, loads may not reference the special //external package.
- Relative paths can now be used for 'path' with new_local_repository and local_repository.

New features:
- Skylark macros are now enabled in WORKSPACE file.
- .bazelrc allows workspace-relative imports as "import %workspace%/path/to/rcfile"
- Evaluate the query expression in a file by passing --query_file= to query
Important changes:
- Remove obsolete --objc_per_proto_includes flag.
- iOS apps and extensions now have launch_storyboard
- Passing multiple JVM options via a single --host_jvm_args flag is now deprecated. Pass each JVM option behind its own --host_jvm_args flag.
- Resources defined locally on an android_library rule will respect the neverlink attribute.
- Update Rust to 1.4
- Fix resource handling for exported android_library rules
- Files in external repositories are now treated as mutable, which will make the correctness guarantees of using external repositories stronger (existent), but may cause performance penalties.

- Add support for objc textual headers, which will not be compiled when modules are enabled.
- actoolzip, momczip and swiftstdlibtoolzip have all been made into bash scripts and have been renamed to actoolwrapper, momcwrapper and swiftstdlibtoolwrapper respectively. The old versions will be deleted in a later change.
- [rust] Add rust_bench_test and rust_doc_test rules and improve usability of rust_test tule.

- The names of the clang compilers in the Android NDK crosstool no longer reference gcc.
- 420 dpi is now a valid density for andoid_binary.densities.
- Bazel does strict validation of include files now to ensure correct incremental builds. If you see compilation errors when building C++ code, please make sure that you explicitly declare all header files in the srcs or hdrs attribute of your cc_* targets and that your cc_* targets have correct "deps" on cc_library's that they use.
- [jsonnet] Fix jsonnet_to_json rule to read code_vars from code_vars instead of vars.
- Tests, genrules, and Skylark actions without the "requires-network" tag will no longer be able to access the network.
- C++ libraries no longer need includes = ["."] (or similar copts) to include paths relative to a remote repository's root.
- Support exports attribute for android_library
- Symlink dirents of directories containing a file named "DONT_FOLLOW_SYMLINKS_WHEN_TRAVERSING_THIS_DIRECTORY_VIA_A_RECURSI VE_TARGET_PATTERN" will not be traversed for transitive target patterns.
