… platform repo rule #21877 happened because, even though we define `@platforms` to be the bundled version shipped with Bazel (which is 0.0.9 on HEAD), people tend to define their own versions of `@platforms` in WORKSPACE. If this ends up being a lower version (very likely), the subsequent `load` to use the `host_platform_repo` repo rule (which is a Starlark version of `local_config_platform`) will fail because that repo rule was only introduced in `platforms` version 0.0.9. To solve this conundrum, we define a new repo `@internal_platforms_do_not_use` that _also_ points to the bundled version of `@platforms`. Nobody is likely to define this repo, so we can fairly reliably get the Starlark repo rule, and also still allow people to override the actual `@platforms` targets they use. Work towards #18285. Fixes #21877.
