Bazel client: mock out read/write calls Make blaze::ReadFileDescriptor(int fd, ...) and blaze::WriteFile(int fd, ...) platform-independent by mocking out the read(2) and write(2) calls. Also rename ReadFileDescriptor to ReadFrom and introduce a new WriteTo method that encapsulates WriteFile's prior logic. In particular these functions now take a read_func/write_func function argument instead of a file descriptor, so the read(2)/write(2) calls can be mocked out. This allows us to use these functions on Windows too, where read(2)/write(2) are not implemented, and we can inject a different read_func/write_func.

{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.
