Baseline: 17ebbf15bea3733c0c21e0376fb5906e391edb49

Incompatible changes:

• The deprecated startup options --experimental_oom_more_eagerly(_threshold) are removed.

Important changes:

• Remove flag --incompatible_load_proto_toolchain_for_javalite_from_com_google_p rotobuf which has been flipped in Bazel 3.0.
• Allow assembly file sources in cc_common.compile.
• Set default .netrc file on Windows to %USERPROFILE%
• A maximum 150 attributes per RuleClass is enforced
• Increase max targets per rule class limit to 200
• ctx.split_attr now includes attributes with Starlark split transitions.
• The --max_computation_steps flag bounds the computation done by a BUILD file.
• Native patch can handle file permission properly
• Aspects may now propagate through dependencies on rule outputs by being defined with apply_to_generating_rules = True.
• 'query --output=build' now shows where rule classes (not just rules) are created.
• The flag incompatible_bzl_disallow_load_after_statement is removed.
• ctx.split_attr now includes attributes with Starlark split transitions.
• The flag incompatible_no_output_attr_default is removed.
• Fix wall-time of the SpawnResult in WorkerSpawnRunner
• Add stamp parameter for cc_common.link to enable including build info
• The flag --incompatible_restrict_named_params is removed.
• The flag --incompatible_depset_union is removed.
• Bazel uses fewer compiler flags by default when building Objective-C. In particular, Bazel no longer sets -O0, -DDEBUG=1, -fstack-protector, -fstack-protector-all, or -g in dbg mode, and Bazel no longer sets -Os, -DNDEBUG=1, -Wno-unused-variable, -Winit-self, or -Wno-extra in opt mode. If you want to apply these flags to your project, you can reenable them in your CROSSTOOL.
• A maximum attribute name length is 128 is enforced
