Refactor simple distributed caching support The simple distributed caching in Bazel used ConcurrentMap as a blob store. It is incorrect to use an overloaded interface for this purpose. This change defines a SimpleBlobStore interface that only has put(), get() and containsKey() methods and allows a simple implementation of a blob store as remote cache for Bazel. Also updated documentation to summarize the options available in the remote spwan strategy. There is no functional change.

{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.
