Release 8.0.0-pre.20240206.3rc1 (2024-02-14)

Baseline: cc8be0ab496570eb155ba220012f52f6a6c7082d

Cherry picks:

cff79d0aa6f2d470b8648f2b89beeefd0867e177: Do not build the runfiles tree when creating deploy jars.
959ab10559800eab6a3841f80cbc06f119e659b7: Fix bug in GraphOutputWriter#partitionedFactored which caused queue to grow to O(E), and now upper-bounding it to O(N).

Incompatible changes:

The –host_jvm_profile command line argument is not supported anymore.
The “input_manifests” argument of ctx.actions.{run,run_shell} is now a no-op. resolve_command and resolve_tools always return the empty list as the input manifest list.

Important changes:

Bazel’s Bash completion can now complete external repository labels when using --enable_bzlmod.
BEP’s execution_phase_time_in_ms no longer includes the analysis-only part at the beginning of the build. Artificial downtrend in execution_phase_time_in_ms expected.

This release contains contributions from many people at Google, as well as Fabian Meumertzheim, Xdng Yng, Zheng Wei Tan.
