Flags underneath rules/flags/ aren't working correctly

[Bencodes]

I'm able to find the flags with Bazel query:

❯ ./bazelw query @rules_android//rules/flags:all
(16:59:19) INFO: Current date is 2024-05-06
@rules_android//rules/flags:all_files
@rules_android//rules/flags:android_enable_res_v3
@rules_android//rules/flags:bzl
@rules_android//rules/flags:debug
@rules_android//rules/flags:enable_splits
@rules_android//rules/flags:flags
@rules_android//rules/flags:manifest_merge_order
@rules_android//rules/flags:mi_dogfood
@rules_android//rules/flags:mi_v3
@rules_android//rules/flags:min_sdk_version
@rules_android//rules/flags:num_dex_shards
@rules_android//rules/flags:runfiles_root_prefix
@rules_android//rules/flags:stamp
@rules_android//rules/flags:stamp_off
@rules_android//rules/flags:stamp_on
@rules_android//rules/flags:use_adb_root
@rules_android//rules/flags:use_custom_dex_shards
@rules_android//rules/flags:use_direct_deploy
@rules_android//rules/flags:use_studio_deployer

But i'm unable to use the vast majority of them:

➜ ./bazelw build //apps/rider:bin_devRelease --@@rules_android//rules/flags:min_sdk_version=10
(17:03:04) ERROR: Skipping '@@rules_android//rules/flags:min_sdk_version': no such target '@@rules_android//rules/flags:min_sdk_version': target 'min_sdk_version' not declared in package 'rules/flags' defined by /private/var/tmp/_bazel_blee/499a001013731d09bffd82f8601a3161/external/rules_android/rules/flags/BUILD

The flag that does seem to work is @rules_android//rules/flags:manifest_merge_order which is registered as an individual attribute on the rules vs. the rest of the flags which are wrapped up in the @rules_android//rules/flags:flags attribute.

It is not intended that you can explicitly set min_sdk_version on the command line. It exists so that it can be used as an internal implementation detail, but this is not fully wired up and functional.
