And include in GitHub release artifacts

Updates rules_swift to pull in bazelbuild/rules_swift#838

When users open the archive, they'll have rich docs they can explore using Xcode's documentation navigator.

When we update to Xcode 13.4, we'll be able to generate HTML docs with this approach and publish to the documentation website. Here's a demo of what that static site looks like: https://envoy-mobile-docc-demo.netlify.app/documentation/envoy/

Risk Level: Low
Testing: Local, CI
Docs Changes: Added
Release Notes: Added

This is fantastic, thank you @jpsim!

Ultimately, it would be great if we could find a way to also publish these to EM's official documentation tree, but this is a great first step.

I completely agree, and this will be possible when we update to Xcode 13.4, tracked in #2100.

For more context, this is the Xcode 13.4 feature we need for static website hosting: swiftlang/swift-docc#44
