Refactor how coverage support files get to test actions. Previously we used labels in each configuration fragment that then got added to every test action. Instead, we now have a filegroup under //tools/test for coverage files that truly need to be on the inputs of every test action and collect language-specific support files in InstrumentedFilesProvider. This makes configuration creation simpler and makes it possible to turn --crosstool_top into something else other than a filegroup (previously, it was that filegroup that got added to every test action) -- MOS_MIGRATED_REVID=126170241

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.
