Have ConfiguredTargetFactory subclasses declare which FragmentOptions they need to create their fragments. This is prerequisite work for fragment-limited configurations (configurations that only include the fragments needed by their rules' transitive closures). Given a set of desired fragment classes, we need to know which FragmentOptions are needed to instantiate those fragments. Note that we can't map this relationship the other way (given a set of FragmentOptions, which fragment classes do they load?). That's because different fragment loaders may consume overlapping options. A good example is CppOptions, which is, e.g., used by both the C++ and Python configuration loaders. At some point, we're probably going to want to force configuration loaders to only understand options from their own "domain" (or have well-defined hierarchies). But that's not the reality of today. -- MOS_MIGRATED_REVID=94091093

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.
