Support multiple mirror URLs for external repos This change improves upon 4c67807964e37cfd55bbcda4c6374fcc480bcecc. - A urls attribute has been added to the native workspace rules, with the exception of maven_jar and git_repository. The Skylark repository API also supports multiple URLs now. - The earlier mirrors in the list are preferred. Failover will happen automatically in parallel. - The first 32kB of data is checked before choosing a mirror in order to evade captive portals. - If one's Internet goes down or a download times out, then the download will resume automatically where it left off, provided the server supports RFC7233 for that particular file. Please note that GitHub does not support this for archive snapshots. Files should always be mirrored to a CDN, e.g. GCS, because they support this. - A semaphore is now used on downloads so only 8 can happen at once.

{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.
