The setup guide only explains how to use rules_foreign_cc with WORKSPACE, not with bzlmod.

OK that is actually super easy. Would still be good to mention it in the Setup guide!

It is indeed quite easy to use rules_foreign_cc from MODULE.bazel, however, it comes with some limitations, namely you don't have much control over which toolchains are registered — you get the defaults. For example, if you want to avoid using the built tools, currently your only option is to use a workspace file, as far as I'm aware.
