However only allow it when they are merged from different defaults.

Extend the tests to cover that and other cases with visibilities in
defaults.

Also avoid dumping the whole visibility spec in the error message when a
visibility check fails, because it gets noisy for long visibility lists, and
can be confusing when //visibility:public gets merged with other visibility
rules.

Some tools (i.e. you-complete-me) make use of a 'compdb' file
(compile_commands.json) that records (among other things) the
arguments needed to compile a file. These tools can use this with
libclang to provide semantic completions and perform other IDE
actions. This CL adds support for soong to generate a (simple)
compile_commands.json file.
