Release 8.0.0-pre.20240911.1 (2024-09-20)

Baseline: ad2ea07

Incompatible changes:

  - --legacy_important_outputs is flipped to false. See #14353 for
    details

Important changes:

  - Uploading local action results to a disk or remote cache now
    occurs in the background whenever possible, potentially
    unblocking the execution of followup actions. Set
    `--noremote_cache_async` to revert to the previous behavior.
  - Overrides in the root MODULE.bazel file are now ignored with
    `--ignore_dev_dependency`. (Overrides in non-root modules are
    already ignored.)
  - Added support for using a remote cache that evicts blobs and
    doesn't have AC integrity check (e.g. HTTP cache).

This release contains contributions from many people at Google, as well as Benjamin Peterson, Fabian Meumertzheim, Jacob Van De Weert, John Millikin.
