Add note about EXT_BUILD_DEPS to docs

4

When building libraries with dependencies, such as curl & OpenSSL, I've found this to be necessary. It would have been useful to me to have this documented.

In modern CMake, an export file(s) are created during the build. Dependent external targets use these files to find and configure the package by name. The location of the exported...

CMake build script always sets `CMAKE_RANLIB` to an empty string.

The [cmake build script](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_foreign_cc/tree/99d018f0592bd7de492cbc2fa5e44828aea1ef4c/foreign_cc/private/cmake_script.bzl) always overrides the cache value `CMAKE_RANLIB` with an empty string.

Redundant builds of dependencies due to shared objects in runfiles

I've noticed that all (transitive) dependencies of `rules_foreign_cc` rules tend to get compiled twice, due to [this code](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_foreign_cc/blob/86936d7b5b6022eba654fee1b0937915159e94ba/foreign_cc/private/framework.bzl#L517) in `cc_external_rule_impl` adding the dynamic libraries to the runfiles. I find this...
