and the Bazel Central Registry
GoogleTest and its dependencies now use the following names:
GoogleTest: com_google_googletest -> googletest
Abseil: com_google_absl -> abseil-cpp
RE2: com_googlesource_code_re2 -> re2
Bazel users using the WORKSPACE file to specify dependencies may
need to use https://bazel.build/rules/lib/repo/http#http_archive-repo_mapping
to remap repositories to their former names if their dependencies do not
agree on on which name is used.
It is recommended that users migrate to bzlmod to manage Bazel dependencies.

https://bazel.build/external/overview#bzlmod
Bzlmod will be the default in a future Bazel release.
By default it requires projects to be registered with the
Bazel Central Registry (https://registry.bazel.build/) and
thus uses regular releases by default.
Users that want to "live-at-head" can still do this through
with overrides (https://bazel.build/external/module#overrides).
This change updates GoogleTest dependencies to use released versions.
CI uses Bzlmod except in the case of linux_gcc-floor, which will
keep testing the old WORKSPACE-based dependency system.

bazel build --define=absl=1 ...
A dependency on RE2 is now required when building GoogleTest with Abseil.
Using RE2 will provide a consistent cross-platform regex experience.
Users will need to add the com_googlesource_code_re2, bazel_skylib,
and platforms repository to their WORKSPACE files. See our WORKSPACE
file in the root directory of this project for an example of how to
add the dependencies.
Please note that the com_googlesource_code_re2 dependency must use a
commit from the `abseil` branch of the project:

When built with `--define=absl=1` under Bazel, GoogleTest
flags use ABSL_FLAG instead of GoogleTest's own implementation.
There are some minor behavior differences in this mode.
The most notable difference is that unrecognized flags result
in a flag parsing error, and are not returned to the user though
a modified argc/argv, unless they appear after the positional
argument delimiter ("--").
For example, to pass a non-Abseil flag, you would have to do
./mytest --gtest_color=false -- --myflag=myvalue
The documentation at https://abseil.io/docs/cpp/guides/flags
may be helpful in understanding the behavior.
There are some other minor differences. For example,
passing --help results in the program returning 1 instead of 0.
