Expose merge_cc_info from cc_info.bzl

Once this change is *released* in rules_cc and rules_java updated to use the new version, we can update rules_java/java/private/java_info.bzl, preventing that from widely-loading cc_common.

Compatibility mode loads native merge_cc_infos instead of the starlarked thing because when I tried forcing java_info to use cc_info.bzl's merge_cc_infos it failed on Bazel 8.
