Add flag to skip early base extraction

This adds a flag to the installer to skip uncompressing the base image during installation.

Uncompressing the base image during installation can be problematic:
1. If you configure the startup option `output_user_root` you'll wind up extracting the image twice. Once during installation and a second time during the first bazel invocation in your project.
2. If you're bootstrapping Bazel in a controlled environment (in my case via Nix) then you can get permission errors if Bazel defaults to extracting to the home directory. There's no way to skip this extraction and for the time being I have resorted to seting `HOME` to a throw away directory during install.

Closes #5303.

Bazel

{Fast, Correct} - Choose two

Build and test software of any size, quickly and reliably.

  • Speed up your builds and tests: Bazel only rebuilds what is necessary. With advanced local and distributed caching, optimized dependency analysis and parallel execution, you get fast and incremental builds.

  • One tool, multiple languages: Build and test Java, C++, Android, iOS, Go, and a wide variety of other language platforms. Bazel runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

  • Scalable: Bazel helps you scale your organization, codebase, and continuous integration solution. It handles codebases of any size, in multiple repositories or a huge monorepo.

  • Extensible to your needs: Easily add support for new languages and platforms with Bazel's familiar extension language. Share and re-use language rules written by the growing Bazel community.
