Inconsistent cquery configuration output

[moroten]

Description of the bug:

I get the following inconsistent output from cquery:

$ bazel shutdown
$ bazel cquery :some_tool 2>/dev/null
//tmp:some_tool (23f2fe8)
$ bazel cquery :packager 2>/dev/null
//tmp:packager (23f2fe8)
$ bazel cquery :some_tool 2>/dev/null
//tmp:some_tool (23f2fe8)
//tmp:some_tool (b8845d7)  <- THIS ONE IS NEW

I seems like bazel cquery is looking for my targets in all loaded configurations, not just the command line configuration. The exec config below is only there after the bazel cquery :package command.

$ bazel config 2>/dev/null
Available configurations:
23f2fe887fea893bcf15f486f42279fc7b8af18589122f17444d7418474d3596 k8-fastbuild
