Code Review

This pull request updates the 'build_bazel_rules_apple' dependency from version 4.3.3 to 5.1.0 in 'bazel/workspace0.bzl'. However, a critical issue was raised: upgrading to version 5.1.0 will break the build because WORKSPACE support was removed in 'rules_apple' v5.0.0, and this repository still uses a WORKSPACE file. The reviewer suggests pinning to the latest 4.x release (v4.5.3) instead to avoid breaking the build.

According to the release notes for rules_apple v5.0.0, WORKSPACE support has been completely removed. Since this repository is still using a WORKSPACE file (via bazel/workspace0.bzl), upgrading to 5.1.0 will break the build.\n\nTo avoid breaking the build, we should pin to the latest 4.x release (v4.5.3) which still supports WORKSPACE.
