Fixes bazelbuild#14728, part of bazelbuild#14727. Rules can begin using this as soon as it is released (hopefully in Bazel 5.1), and then future versions of Bazel will update the functionality as optional toolchains are added and C++ rules are updated to use them.

Does the idea behind this make sense? Will this make migrations to use optional toolchains easier, or will it just add an extra precondition because users want to support pre-5.1 versions of Bazel? |

It will make it possible to be forward compatible, but only once a ruleset only supports Bazel 5.1+. That's better than nothing imo. |
