This essentially reverts bazelbuild/bazel#23337 now that the toolchain configuration has been moved here. clang-cl does support assembly just like other clang variants and unlike MASM supports assembly using native AT&T syntax as with regular clang. MSVC-style assembly requires using MASM, which continues to be available in the MSVC toolchain. This has previously been discussed in bazelbuild/bazel#24152 and reverted for Bazel 7.4.1 in bazelbuild/bazel#24211. Ideally, we'd want to have some mechanism to make assembler selection configurable and support several kinds of asm syntax in the future.
