refactor: implement the new bzlmod api

[thesayyn]

Fixes #123 #56 #66 #124

[baxelrod-bdai]

I'd find this feature very useful. I hope it gets merged soon!

[thesayyn]

Still working on this, there will be some breaking changes but this will eventually land./

Hope this supports "postinst" script, or at least provides a hook for people to manually add a few commands from "postinst".

@gfrankliu post int is just too hard to support as you must execute it within the context of a container. You're better off doing that with a dockerfile or something.

That's why I was suggesting providing a "hook" so that people can run the equivalent postint script. Users can read/understand the package provided postinst and write a compatible/equivalent script that can run using the "hook".

Test

⚠️ Buildkite build #58 failed.

//apt:extensions.doc_extract failed to build

in deps attribute of starlark_doc_extract rule //apt:extensions.doc_extract: missing bzl_library targets for
Starlark module(s) @bazel_lib//lib:strings.bzl, //apt/private:pkgconfig.bzl. Since this rule was created by
the macro 'bzl_library', the error might have been caused by the macro implementation

💡 To reproduce the build failures, run

bazel build //apt:extensions.doc_extract
