1.14.0

What's Changed

• Fix clang discovery when compiler isn't named clang
• Update swift_test to fail if it doesn't execute any tests, thanks @jszumski!
• Add --@build_bazel_rules_swift//swift:copt and --@build_bazel_rules_swift//swift:exec_copt flags to replace --swiftcopt and --host_swiftcopt in the future (--host_swiftcopt is already removed from bazel @ HEAD). The easiest migration path is to use --flag_alias=swiftcopt=@build_bazel_rules_swift//swift:copt --flag_alias=host_swiftcopt=@build_bazel_rules_swift//swift:exec_copt
• Fix bazel @ HEAD support removing linking info from the objc provider
