[9.2.0] Exclude repos with cross-repo symlinks from the remote repo contents cache (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/pull/30161) (#30190)

### Description
This is meant as a temporary stopgap for the many symlink-related issues
found with the remote repo contents cache and includes tests found while
debugging #30149.

The new and old tests are parameterized in a test suite variable to keep
the diff small and enable future experimentation with improved symlink
support. As part of #30160, I'll investigate a more conceptual approach
to symlink resolution that unifies the logic with that in
RemoteActionFileSystem.

### Motivation

Fixes #30149

### Build API Changes

No

### Checklist

- [x] I have added tests for the new use cases (if any).
- [ ] I have updated the documentation (if applicable).

### Release Notes

RELNOTES: The remote repo contents cache no longer caches or restores
repos with cross-repo symlinks, thus avoiding a large surface area for
bugs. The effort to reenable this support is tracked by
https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/30160.

Closes #30161.
