Sets
--nobuild_runfile_links
for our build which skips building the symlink forest for Bazel's "runfiles", unless it's required.This is a small change but it reduces the amount of I/O Bazel needs to do. I've been dogfooding it locally for months and haven't run into any issues so it should be good to go. The reason this isn't the default in Bazel is because some legacy rules rely on the old behavior.
Motivation
Less I/O in the Bazel build
