Fix distribution archive generation
New features:
- Windows launcher stubs now embed an `asInvoker` UAC manifest,
preventing "The requested operation requires elevation. (error:
740)" for targets whose name matches the installer-detection
heuristic.
Important changes:
- The remote repo contents cache now correctly materializes chains
of symlinks as action inputs, but no longer supports symlinks
into the main repository.
- Fixed Bazel being unable to run a Windows executable whose path
is too long to shorten under `MAX_PATH`, e.g. when 8dot3 short
names are disabled (microsoft/Windows-Containers#507).
- Fixed spurious "No such file" errors with the remote repo
contents cache when a repo contains a symlink to a `.bzl` file.
- Source directories in external repositories are temporarily
allowed to cross package boundaries. This will be disallowed in
the future, gated by the new
`--incompatible_check_external_repo_source_dir_package_boundary`
flag.
- Adds `bazel dump --skyframe=keys` to report only the keys
available in SkyFrame. Always use with `--skykey_filter` to limit
the number of keys reported.
- Fixed a crash with `--experimental_remote_repo_contents_cache`
when running without a remote or disk cache.

{Fast, Correct} - Choose two
Build and test software of any size, quickly and reliably.
Speed up your builds and tests: Bazel rebuilds only 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.
