@thesayyn Sorry, I forgot about this. Is this ready for review?

@fmeum its not close to being done, but i'd really appreciate the early feedback here. I am committed to land this and some more.

@thesayyn Took me a while not the general approach looks good to me.

I like to see a workaround for bazelbuild/rules_cc#277 - have you tried to upstream it?

This repo currently reuses the toolchain config from rules_cc. Is your plan to no longer do this or to also migrate the default toolchain to the new rules? Either would be fine, just curious.

Ran into this issue when trying to fix toolchains_llvm to respect rules_sh posfix toolchain to replace #!/bin/bash with the correct path. From my perspective merging this PR will allow me to fix nixos builds.

@thesayyn is this PR stale? Would you mind if I continue the work here?
