Bazel: Support NDK 17

[jin]

r17 is expected to land in May 2018.

Betas 1 and 2 will be released this month (March) and next month (April) respectively.

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/ndk/+/ndk-release-r17/CHANGELOG.md

Relevant changes:

• libc++/@androidndk//:toolchain-libcpp will become the default STL. The other STLs will be removed in r18, or moved to another project.
• GCC will no longer be supported.
• Removed support for building against armeabi, mips, and mips64.
• ~Removed support for API levels 14 and 15. New minimum is 16.~
• clang is updated to v6.0.2, build 4691093

NDK17 is was released. I haven't tested with bazel 0.14rc, but I don't see this being in the changelog.

[jin]

I haven't had free cycles to work on this yet. Bumping to P1 for re-prioritization.

That's great thank you!

When calling ./configure in tensorflow I get

WARNING: The API level of the NDK in ../Android/Sdk/ndk-bundle is 17, which is not supported by Bazel (officially supported versions: [10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16]). Please use another version.

Can someone please confirm I can ignore this warning?

[jin]

Yes, you can ignore it. Bazel supports up to r18 now.
