Helpers for CC Toolchains.

Rules that require a CC toolchain should call `use_cc_toolchain` and `find_cc_toolchain`
to depend on and find a cc toolchain.

* When https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7260 is **not** flipped, current
  C++ toolchain is selected using the legacy mechanism (`--crosstool_top`,
  `--cpu`, `--compiler`). For that to work the rule needs to declare an
  `_cc_toolchain` attribute, e.g.

    foo = rule(
        implementation = _foo_impl,
        attrs = {
            "_cc_toolchain": attr.label(
                default = Label(
                    "@rules_cc//cc:current_cc_toolchain", # copybara-use-repo-external-label
                ),
            ),
        },
    )

* When https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7260 **is** flipped, current
  C++ toolchain is selected using the toolchain resolution mechanism
  (`--platforms`). For that to work the rule needs to declare a dependency on
  C++ toolchain type:

    load(":find_cc_toolchain/bzl", "use_cc_toolchain")

    foo = rule(
        implementation = _foo_impl,
        toolchains = use_cc_toolchain(),
    )

We advise to depend on both `_cc_toolchain` attr and on the toolchain type for
the duration of the migration. After
https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7260 is flipped (and support for old
Bazel version is not needed), it's enough to only keep the toolchain type.
