Enable use_plus_in_repo_names for common options

Bazel 7 uses ~ in external repo names and it leads to
various issues like bazelbuild/bazel#23127 or some tools
consider such paths as ignored because tilde could mean
a backup copy of the file. Bazel 8 addresses these issues
with use of + by default, but Bazel 7 must be supplied with
an incompatible argument to enable this behavior
