A feature is basically a toggleable list of args. There are a variety of
dependencies and compatibility requirements that must be satisfied for the
listed args to be applied.

A feature may be enabled or disabled through the following mechanisms:
* Via command-line flags, or a `.bazelrc`.
* Through inter-feature relationships (enabling one feature may implicitly
  enable another).
* Individual rules may elect to manually enable or disable features through the
  builtin `features` attribute.

Because of the toggleable nature of toolchain features, it's generally best to
avoid defining features as part of your toolchain with the following exceptions:
* You want build files to be able to configure compiler flags. For example, a
  binary might specify `features = ["optimize_for_size"]` to create a small
  binary instead of optimizing for performance.
* You need to carry forward Starlark toolchain behaviors. If you're migrating a
  complex Starlark-based toolchain definition to these rules, many of the
  workflows and flags were likely based on features. This rule exists to support
  those existing structures.

If you want to be able to configure flags via the bazel command-line, instead
consider making a bool_flag, and then making your `cc_args` `select` on those
flags.

For more details about how Bazel handles features, see the official Bazel
documentation at
https://bazel.build/docs/cc-toolchain-config-reference#features.

Examples:

    # A feature that can be easily toggled to optimize for size
    cc_feature(
        name = "optimize_for_size",
        enabled = False,
        feature_name = "optimize_for_size",
        args = [":optimize_for_size_args"],
    )

    # This feature signals a capability, and doesn't have associated flags.
    #
    # For a list of well-known features, see:
