fix: use com_google_protobuf in WORKSPACE (#2432)

The only way to support both workspace and bzlmod mode, is to call
protobuf com_google_protobuf. This is because old Bazel's encode it in
default values of `--protoco_compiler` flag, and so new Bazel 8 needs to
do the same.

For bzlmod, upgrade rules_cc to 0.0.16 and rules_java (dev dep) to
8.3.1. Those are minimal versions that are also calling protobuf again
com_google_protobuf.

For workspace, upgrade rules_cc to 0.1.0. This is an incompatible
version that doesn't call Protobuf. rules_python users may use it. In
case they need cc_proto_library in `@rules_cc//cc/defs.bzl`, they can
overwrite the version to 0.0.16 in WORKSPACE (or use protobuf_deps that
already does that).

Disable docs generation targets on WORKSPACE CI setups. They are broken
by rules_java upgrade.

Upgrades dependencies:
* rules_cc 0.0.16 (Bzlmod) and rules_cc 0.1.0 (WORKSPACE)
* rules_java 8.3.1
* bazel_skylib 1.7.0 (workspace; bzlmod already specifying that version)
* protobuf 29.0-rc2 (workspace; bzlmod already specifying that version)

Fixes #2429
