Bazel build implementation, doesn't provide options for the compilation modes opt and debug (#2395)

* Bazel add default compliation args for opt and debug. Can be overriden

* Add docstrings for new compilation mode override flags

* Remove cc_args_list shims, which arent needed anymore for cc_feature

* Add Compilation mode overrides to the BAZEL_ONLY_ALLOWLIST, these dont exist in Cmake

* For completness add the fastbuild default options, and override flag

* Remove the default options for fastbuiild, as the bazel doc defaults didnt make much sense, nor work. Leaving these for completness and future addition

* Rename the config and constraint labels from OVERRIDE to REMOVE_DEFS

* Change naming of flags from PICO_COMPILATION_XXX_REMOVE_DEFS to PICO_COMPILATION_NO_XXX_ARGS for OPT, FASTBUILD & DEBUG variants

* Fixup spellling mistakes, and comments

* Fix typo PICO_COMPILATION_NO_FASBUILD_ARGS to FASTBUILD
