javax.annotation-api is licensed CDDL, which was not noticed when it was
introduced. Tomcat provides an Apache 2 version of the same annotation. Note
that this annotation is only used when compiling with Java 9+.
Unfortunately this may cause classpath collisions since there are _many_ copies
of this annotation on Maven Central; we wanted one canonical source and
javax.annotation-api seemed like that source. We hope this won't impact many
users since we have always suggested using it only for compilation. But it will
probably impact some users. However, we didn't create this mess, this seems to
be "standard practice" for J2EE, which this annotation is now part of, so we're
just impacted by it.

io.grpc has fewer dependencies than io.grpc.internal. Moving it to a
separate artifact lets users use the API without bringing in the deps.
If the library has an optional dependency on grpc, that can be quite
convenient.
We now version-pin both grpc-api and grpc-core, since both contain
internal APIs.
I had to change a few tests in grpc-api to avoid FakeClock. Moving
FakeClock to grpc-api was difficult because it uses
io.grpc.internal.TimeProvider, which can't be moved since it is a
production class. Having grpc-api's tests depend on grpc-core's test
classes would be weird and cause a circular dependincy. Having
grpc-api's tests depend on grpc-core is likely possible, but weird and
fairly unnecessary at this point. So instead I rewrote the tests to
avoid FakeClock.

This commit aligns the naming of the Bazel Maven jars with the names
used by Bazel's migration-tooling project:
https://github.com/bazelbuild/migration-tooling
Unfortunately, we can't fix @com_google_protobuf_java because it's
required by Bazel itself.
Fixes#3328
Bazel third party dependencies are specified in repositories.bzl which
gives the consumer the ability to opt-out of any dependencies they use
directly in their own project.
Fixes#2756
