This is Please v15.6.0

• Added an entry_points dict to build_rule() which can be used
  to name a number of outputs from a build rule. These can later be
  referred to as tools in other rules. See java_toolchain() for an
  example. #1243
• Rewrote java_toolchain() to use aforementioned entry points.
  NB: this implementation lacks support for javac workers #1263
• Added go_toolchain() build rule. This is still a work in progress
  but currently downloads the golang distribution. This can then be
  used to set GoTool in your .plzconfig. #1286
• Please will now retry on failures to download updates #1257
• The pleasew wrapper script will now pass $PLZ_ARGS when it invokes
  please much like the bootstrap script. This can be useful in a CI
  environment. #1252
• Added new sub-command plz fmt that will try and format build files.
  This uses a modified version of Bazel's buildifier that supports more
  of please's build language. #1265
• Fix issue where go_test() wasn't using the configured GoTool for
  coverage. #1271
• Allow plz query somepath to read from stdin #1269
• Added --log_append which will make please append to plz-out/log/build.log
  instead of overriding it. This can be useful when piping outputs from
  plz query back into please. #1273
• Introduced the concept of milestone releases! Once we feel please has reached
  a milestone in its development, we will write up a summary of recent changes
  and that release will be marked as a milestone. Please will print a dialogue
  linking to this writeup when updating. Watch this space, we will also be
  distributing these via a newsletter! #1281
• Remote execution: turn off gzip compression by default (#1283) and add support
  for zstd compression (#1288)
