Support using minimized bitcode for ThinLTO LTO indexing step This is the Blaze side of the support for emitting and using minimized bitcode files during the LTO indexing (thin link) step of a ThinLTO build. The llvm support has already been released to stable, and this needs to be submitted after the companion Crosstool support (unknown commit, will send for review once this larger part is reviewed). This enables large applications successfully build using ThinLTO and -g, otherwise the bitcode files that are input to the LTO indexing step are huge and the maximum input size is exceeded.

{Fast, Correct} - Choose two
Bazel is a build tool that builds code quickly and reliably. It is used to build the majority of Google‘s software, and thus it has been designed to handle build problems present in Google’s development environment, including:
A massive, shared code repository, in which all software is built from source. Bazel has been built for speed, using both caching and parallelism to achieve this. Bazel is critical to Google's ability to continue to scale its software development practices as the company grows.
An emphasis on automated testing and releases. Bazel has been built for correctness and reproducibility, meaning that a build performed on a continuous build machine or in a release pipeline will generate bitwise-identical outputs to those generated on a developer's machine.
Language and platform diversity. Bazel's architecture is general enough to support many different programming languages within Google, and can be used to build both client and server software targeting multiple architectures from the same underlying codebase.
