Rollback of commit 59180a4ea66b1395b5b85defd732859ecae919ea.

*** Reason for rollback ***

Break bazel-tests and many other jobs on CI.
http://ci.bazel.io/job/bazel-tests/BAZEL_VERSION=HEAD,PLATFORM_NAME=linux-x86_64/651/console

*** Original change description ***

Add SpawnInputExpander helper class to arrange runfiles for spawn strategies

This new class is a combination of SpawnHelper and our internal code; the
plan is to migrate all spawn strategies to the new class. The strict flag
should be enabled by default, but that's a breaking change, so we need to do
it later.

- Use it in SandboxStrategy.
- Add ActionInput.getExecPath to return a PathFragment; this avoids lots of
  back and forth between path fragments and strings.

This is a step towards #159...

Bazel (Beta)

{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.
