Rewrite SkylarkAspectsTest to inherit AnalysisTestCase. While BuildViewTestCase now has an update() function, it also has a lot of legacy cruft that doesn't match how the code is used in production. This also makes the test code a bit simpler. Also add a couple missing fail() statements. This is in preparation for adding a couple more tests; we don't have good test coverage for interaction between Skylark aspects and native rules and vice versa, especially for error scenarios. I may reuse some of the AspectTest code, but that inherits AnalysisTestCase. Inheriting AnalysisTestCase here also makes that easier. -- MOS_MIGRATED_REVID=112460142

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.
