Add "info server_log" command to retrieve the log file path.

We emit several logs: client output to STDOUT & STDERR, server STDOUT & STDERR
(saved in jvm.out), the command log, the master log, and various additional log
files written by helper tools and specific modules.

But the log file which is often the most useful for diagnosing errors and
understanding unexpected build behavior is the server log, which contains
extensive debug information from the server process. We want to expose its
location in the "info" command to make it easier to find.

RELNOTES: Added "bazel info server_log" command to obtain the main Bazel server
log file path, which can be quite useful for debugging Bazel issues.

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.
