Bump dependency versions for rules_scala v7.1.0

Bumps most dependency versions (except `rules_python` under `WORKSPACE`)
to the latest available before releasing `rules_scala` v7.1.0. Also
bumps the `rules_scala` version number in `MODULE.bazel` to `7.1.0`.

- Go: 1.24.4 => 1.24.5
- Scalafmt: 3.9.7 => 3.9.8
- `bazel_skylib`: 1.7.1 => 1.8.1
- `gazelle`: 0.43.0 => 0.44.0
- `golang.org/x/tools`: v0.34.0 => v0.35.0
- `org.scala-sbt:util-interface`: 1.11.1 => 1.11.3
- `proto-google-common-protos`: 2.58.0 => 2.59.2
- `rules_cc`: 0.1.1 => 0.1.4
- `rules_go`: 0.55.0 => 0.55.1
- `rules_java`: 8.12.0 => 8.14.0
- `rules_jvm_external`: 6.7 => 6.8
- `rules_python`: 1.4.1 => 1.5.1 (Bzlmod only)

Also:

- Moves the `http_archive` instantiations of `rules_python` and
  `rules_shell` from individual `WORKSPACE` files to
  `//scala:latest_deps.bzl`. Removes `load` statements for
  `http_archive` throughout all `WORKSPACE` files.

- Removes the `--incompatible_autoload_externally` flag from `.bazelrc`.

- Fixes `_get_compiler_srcjar` from
  `//scala/private:macros/scala_repositories.bzl` to return empty
  `compiler_srcjar_objects` instead of returning a valid object.
  Caught by `test_compiler_srcjar_error 2.12.11` from
  `dt_patches/dt_patch_test.sh` when testing under `WORKSPACE`.
  Added `test_fail_if_compiler_srcjar_object_is_empty` to
  `test/shell/test_compiler_sources_integrity.sh` to catch the specific
  problem sooner.

---

This is to ensure that we're compatible with the latest dependencies
available before releasing a new minor version.

I moved the `rules_python` instantiation to `//scala:latest_deps.bzl`
because it was such a pain to update everywhere. `latest_deps.bzl` is
essentially a development file, or a "use at your own risk" file, and
the primary consumers are internal test modules. This will make future
`rules_python` updates less noisy.

The only `rules_shell` instantiations were in the top level `WORKSPACE`
and `test_version/WORKSPACE.template`. I moved `rules_shell` into
`latest_deps.bzl` to eliminate these direct instantations as well, and
to remove the `http_archive` imports from those files.

I'd added `--incompatible_autoload_externally` in bazel-contrib#1748 when fixing
problems with `WORKSPACE` builds under Bazel 8.2.1. However, it's not
really necessary, so I removed it.

Updating `rules_python` from 1.4.1 to 1.5.1 produced the following error
in Bazel 7.6.1 WORKSPACE builds, even with
`--incompatible_autoload_externally=+@rules_python`:

```txt
$ bazel build //src/... //test/...

WARNING: Couldn't auto load rules or symbols, because no dependency on
  module/repository 'rules_python' found. This will result in a failure
  if there's a reference to those rules or symbols.

```

This is due to bazel-contrib/rules_python#2760. In contrast, Bazel 8.3.1
builds work fine, as do Bazel 7.6.1 builds under Bzlmod.

Trying `--incompatible_autoload_externally=PyRuntimeInfo` to work around
the problem under Bazel 7.6.1 produced:

```txt
$ bazel build //src/... //test/...

FATAL: bazel crashed due to an internal error. Printing stack trace:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Symbol in 'PyRuntimeInfo' can't be

    at com.google.devtools.build.lib.packages.AutoloadSymbols.<init>(AutoloadSymbols.java:192)
    [...snip...]
```

And with `--incompatible_autoload_externally=@rules_python` produced:

```txt

  if there's a reference to those rules or symbols.

```

`tools/python/toolchain.bzl` from Bazel 7.6.1 breaks because it
references the builtin `PyRuntimeInfo` instead of `load`ing it from
`@rules_python`. Bazel 8 replaces that file's entire implementation with
a function that `fail`s with a deprecation error and doesn't use
`PyRuntimeInfo`:

- https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/blob/7.6.1/tools/python/toolchain.bzl
- https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/blob/8.0.0/tools/python/toolchain.bzl

Using `+@rules_python` or `+PyRuntimeInfo` produced the original error.
Nothing I could do could avoid using the builtin `PyRuntimeInfo` under
Bazel 7.6.1.

Since it's only a development dependency for `WORKSPACE` builds, I
decided to keep `rules_python` at 1.4.1 in `latest_deps.bzl` for now.
I've filed bazel-contrib/rules_python#3119 to get it on the record.
