Updates to CI to support newer versions of tools

Linux "latest" containers updated to
GCC 14.2
CMake 3.31.2
Bazel 8.0.0

Included are various fixes to get these versions to work.

Bazel now references repositories by their canonical names from the
Bazel Central Registry. For example, Abseil is now @abseil-cpp instead
of @com_google_absl, and GoogleTest is now @googletest instead of
@com_google_googletest. Users still using the old WORKSPACE system may
need to use `repo_mapping` on repositories using the old names. See
`WORKSPACE.bazel` in this commit for an example.
