Test strategy unification - extract env setup to a new class

Introduce a new class TestPolicy that computes the test environment and use it
from all the test strategies instead of the previous duplicated code.

Note how the TestPolicy constructs the environment in four steps, each of which
can override variables set in a previous step:
1. set env variables for which we have a hard-coded policy
2. set env variables from --action_env
3. set env variables from --test_env
4. set env variables that are specific to the test (path locations, coverage
  collection protocol, test sharding protocol, etc.); the code for this lives
  in TestRunnerAction

This changes the order in which env variables are set, which can change the
resulting environment if --test_env or --action_env are set. We should consider
not allowing the command-line flags to override TEST_SRCDIR, RUNFILES_DIR, or
TEST_TMPDIR.

We should also try to find a way to drop the RUNTEST_PRESERVE_CWD variable in
coverage mode. I'm fairly sure that it's current use breaks the combination
of coverage and --run_under. My current thinking is that we change the test
setup script to source the coverage collector before changing the CWD. Another
option is to merge the coverage collector into the test setup script.

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.
