FR: Support flagfile in rustc (@file syntax) #51473
Description
Hello,
In the process of thinking how to better integrate Bazel & RLS (bazelbuild/rules_rust#95) I found out that rustc doesn't support flag file, that is file that contains a list of arguments that is to be parsed by the compiler. Because the way Bazel works, it has crates that can live in various place in the system. It creates symlink at the moment to put everything in one directory but that is not required except that the number of -L flags will ends up being large without it.
It's a very common way of passing options in standard compilers (gcc, clang, javac).
