Description
*Title*: *Support export dependencies*
*Description*:
How about adding support to Envoy to export its dependencies? The generated tarball can be distributed and used as [`distdir`](https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/blob/1bd965ecbcbb411a537ab86958168e26c11e6351/bazel/EXTERNAL_DEPS.md) directory to make the Envoy build faster and more stable. I have created a [draft PR](https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/pull/15948) for POC.
