Here we are duplicating bazel_tools/tools/cpp. The goal is for the BUILD files in bazel_tools/tools/cpp to have an alias that point to rules_cc. Then later on with the incompatible flag these aliases will no longer be valid.
Working towards #8743

In order to migrate C++ rules to platforms, we need the access to the C++
configuration fragment in Starlark APIs. All existing APIs have already access
to it, but cc_common.configure_features doesn't. This change adds a
ctx argument to configure_features.
This is the migration needed for
https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7793, and is part of the effort for
https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/6516.
If the rule doesn't depend on cpp fragment yet, you will have to add `fragments
=['cpp']` argument to the rule() call.
Note that this behavior is only available in Bazel 0.25 (to be released this month).
