What type of PR is this?
Feature

What package or component does this PR mostly affect?
go_deps extension

What does this PR do? Why is it needed?
I'd like the go_deps module extension to expose the mapping between every Go module it bazelizes and its resolved version. This would be extremely useful for external bookkeeping (for e.g. we can easily communicate to CI systems that rely on native package manager metadata, precisely what version of each Go module was used in the build).

Which issues(s) does this PR fix?
Fixes #1905

Files written by module extensions are emitted into an unspecified temporary directory that should be removed after execution. We would need to instantiate a repo with this info or accept an absolute path via an environment variable.

Makes sense, I'm propagating this similar to config.json used by rules_go. I was able to verify that I can access this file as @bazel_gazelle_go_repository_config//:resolved_deps.json. Would this approach work?

I can also expose this via a separate repo rule if that's preferable. On a related note, while I can pull this into my workspace as @bazel_gazelle_go_repository_config//:resolved_deps.json, bazel mod tidy still thinks this repo is an indirect dependency and removes it from MODULE.bazel (I'm explicitly passing it in as inputs to both a build rule and a sh_binary rule). Is that perhaps a bug? If not, can I add a directive to inform bazel mod tidy that I intend to keep that use_repo call?

Unsure why Windows build of rules_go is failing but interestingly I see Bazel warn that the repo is an indirect dependency in Gazelle's own MODULE.bazel file:

(16:03:24) WARNING: C:/b/bk-windows-xmds/bazel/bazel-gazelle/tests/bcr/go_work/MODULE.bazel:27:24: The module extension go_deps defined in @gazelle//:extensions.bzl reported incorrect imports of repositories via use_repo():

Looks like the failure was intermittent and unrelated to the change

The implementation looks reasonable, I'm just not sure whether this is the right way to export this information and thus don't want to commit to it yet.

Could you perhaps create a discussion on this repo and use it to explain your use case in more detail? I would like to gather more feedback from the community so that we can make more informed design decisions.
