While upgrading an internal project from 0.10 to 0.13 we have found that we no longer were able to build one of external non-basel dependencies that already has a lowercase build directory in their repo.

As the name BUILD is much more common than BUILD.bazel, in particular on file systems that are case-insensitive, I propose to generate the latter by default.

Build is a very common name, in particular on file systems that are case-sensitive.

While upgrading an internal project from 0.10 to 0.13 we have found that we no longer were able to build one of external non-basel dependencies that already has a lowercase `build` directory in their repo.

As the name `BUILD` is much more common than `BUILD.bazel`, in particular on file systems that are case-insensitive, I propose to generate the latter by default.

Closes #5146.
