Remove ijar from the bazel binary.

Bazel now doesn't embed ijar anymore and uses ijar embeded in the Java tools remote repository.

Bazel embedded both ijar's source code (required by remote execution) and platform specific pre-built binaries. This change adds platform specific remote Java tools repository that include the corresponding pre-built ijar binary (for Windows, Darwin and Linux), alongside ijar's source code.

This change introduces a collection of macros that wrap the native rules `filegroup` and `java_import` and select a given target from the external java tools repository based on the current platform.

Progress on #6316.

Closes #7665.

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.
