Description

The scheduling library has a dependency on or-tools, which has a dependency on a library called 'Abseil' (or absl). The ESI runtime has a dependency on gRPC, which has a dependency on Abseil as well. They compile against the same version (which is not the default), but end up with linking errors all regarding `absl::lts_20230125::string_view`.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the link failure involving the scheduling library, OR-Tools, the ESI runtime, gRPC, and Abseil. Trace how both dependency paths select Abseil and identify the cause of the `absl::lts_20230125::string_view` linker errors. Done means the affected targets compile and link successfully together.
