Code Review
This pull request adds comments to the BUILD file dependencies to prevent them from being removed by build tools. The reviewer suggested using the standard # keep directive instead of # build_cleaner keep to ensure better compatibility and conciseness across different Bazel dependency management tools.

This project uses bracket includes for dependencies that are actually vendored via the MODULE.bazel. So they should use `"zlib.h"`, `"tcl.h"` etc, but here they use `<zlib.h>`, `<tcl.h>` which makes them look like system headers. They are meant to be using the vendored headers, to explicitly tell build_cleaner (`bant`) that the dependencies should be kept. (ideally, we fix the includes, but since this is a fork, this might be harder to maintain). Also keeps `@openmp` for now, but see The-OpenROAD-Project#364 if this is actually needed.
