Forces the generated java toolchain rule to use the local_java_runtime rule instead of the older java_runtime rule. Currently, the tool infers this automatically from the given Bazel version but in some cases (e.g., Bazel nightly builds), the version string is blank and the new flags gives us the ability to force the new rule.
