"""A rule that copies a file to another place.

native.genrule() is sometimes used to copy files (often wishing to rename them).
The 'copy_file' rule does this with a simpler interface than genrule.

The rule uses a Bash command on Linux/macOS/non-Windows, and a cmd.exe command
on Windows (no Bash is required).
