workspace name is needed for package loading, and so splitting out this computation into a separate skyframe node that can be change-pruned gives us better incrementality; previously we'd need to reload all packages on a WORKSPACE file change.
N.B.
(i) This CL doesn't solve all the other performance issues with //external in Bazel/Blaze since it's still inefficiently used for resolving labels like @foo//bar:baz.
(ii) This CL doesn't address the wasteful invalidation + change pruning of all the packages.
