1. Support running tests on the target platform …

   This change *includes* another change by @juliexxia that was previously
   merged and rolled back:
   bazelbuild@c266ac9
   
   This adds an --use_target_platform_for_tests option that changes tests
   to use the execution properties from the target platform rather than
   the host platform. I believe that the code is currently incorrect -
   if the host and target platforms differ, then tests are cross-compiled
   for the target platform, but use the execution properties for the host
   platform.
   
   This matters for remote execution, where host and target platform may
   be different CPU architectures and operating systems (e.g., compiling
   on x64 Linux and running on ARM64 Mac). Currently, such tests will
   typically fail to run if they contain architecture or OS-specific code.
   
   Progress on bazelbuild#10799.
