Adds flag `--experimental_worker_strict_flagfiles` that checks if the worker argument list conforms to the spec.

The spec calls for only one flag file, at the end of the argument list. However, the implementation allows for
multiple flag files with startup arguments possible between or after. This has led to subtle bugs.

We could also make the spec conform to the implementation, but there are fewer surprises possible with the spec, and
it makes it much clearer that there is a distinction between startup args and per-request args.

We would like to make it even more explicit, and possibly at the same time allow differing flags for workers and
non-workers (e.g. for JIT/GC tweaking), but that would be a larger change.

Bazel

{Fast, Correct} - Choose two

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

  • Speed up your builds and tests: Bazel rebuilds only 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.
