Move --distdir out of experimental status
The option --experimental_distdir has been introduced 4 months
ago and was completely unproblematic ever since. Moreover, it
is now used productively, both in our own bootstrapping process[1],
as well as in external packaging of projects using bazel[2]. So
make this option non-experimental. We still keep the old name as
an alternative to not break existing uses.
Related: #5175.
RELNOTES: The --distdir option is no longer experimental. This
option allows to specify additional directories to look for
files before trying to fetch them from the network. Files from
any of the distdirs are only used if a checksum for the file
is specified and both, the filename and the checksum, match.
