     clean commands

Important changes:

  - alias() can now select() directly on constraint_value()

    Fixes https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/13047.

    Closes #14310.
  - Fixed an issue where Bazel could erroneously report a test passes
    in coverage mode without actually running the test.
  - Make protocOpts() publicly accessible.
  - Add coverage configuration fragment, used to expose
    output_generator label.
  - Bazel now no longer includes system headers on macOS in coverage
    reports (#14969).

    Closes #14971.
  - Starlark test rules can use the new inherited_environment
    parameter of testing.TestEnvironment to specify environment
    variables
    whose values should be inherited from the shell environment.

    Closes #14849.
  - none
    RELNOTES:none
  - Enable merging permissions during Android manifest merging with
    the --merge_android_manifest_permissions flag.
  - Added new register_{execution_platforms,toolchains} directives to
    the MODULE.bazel file, to replace the
    {execution_platforms,toolchains}_to_register attributes on the
    module() directive.
  - Add support for fetching RPC credentials from credential helper.

    Progress on https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/15856

    Closes #15947.
  - `cquery`'s new output mode
    [`--output=files`](https://bazel.build/docs/cquery#files-output)
    lists the output files of the targets matching the query. It
    takes the current value of `--output_groups` into account.

    Closes #15552.
  - Fix for desugaring failure on Bazel+Android+Windows build
    scenario.
