Disallow field syntax to access a target's providers

The provider-key syntax should be used instead.

This is an incompatible change attached to new flag --incompatible_disable_target_provider_fields.

See https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/9014 for details.

RELNOTES: New incompatible flag --incompatible_disable_target_provider_fields removes the ability (in Starlark) to access a target's providers via the field syntax (for example, `ctx.attr.dep.my_provider`). The provider-key syntax should be used instead (for example, `ctx.attr.dep[MyProvider]`). See https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/9014 for details.

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.
