Initial release

This is a first release of the Bazel packaging rules. They were copied from bazelbuild/bazel and moved to this repository to make it easier to take for community contributions.

• The Bazel team will be moving from their internal copy to using these rules in the future.
• Users of pkg_tar, pkg_deb & pkg_rpm can switch to these rules starting now.
• Issues & PRs against bazelbuild/bazel/tools/build_defs/pkg will no longer be accepted. Please send them here.
