Code Review
This pull request updates the documentation for deploying Bazel rules to recommend using separate .bzl files for each symbol, instead of a single defs.bzl file. This change aligns with modern Bazel best practices for better granularity and modularity. The changes in site/en/rules/deploying.md are clear and accurately reflect this new recommendation. The pull request improves the documentation and promotes better rule-writing practices.
