Subject: [PATCH] feat: expose a flag name for allow_unresolved_symlinks (#15)

* feat: expose a flag name for allow_unresolved_symlinks

Allows a principled solution for rules like rules_js that need to have starlark logic conditional on the value, without a breaking change in Bazel 7 as the flag has been renamed.

Unblocks aspect-build/rules_js#1102
Alternative to #14

* code review comments

* fix: be precise about which 7.0 release changes the flag name
