Kotlin rules for Bazel - Legacy Rules 1.5.0

Note: These rules are maintained externally by volunteers (with Google's approval)

Note: The "legacy" prefix will be dropped as of this release. These are the rules, from this point on, until and unless Google chooses to externalize internal rules, at which point we can differentiate.

Note: legacy-1.4.0 isn't released, and thie release includes all features in that line of development. Many of those changes are included in this list.
