Code Review

This pull request updates the protobuf dependency from version 34.0.bcr.1 to 35.0 in the main and test project MODULE.bazel files. Feedback highlights a potential compatibility issue, as Protobuf v35.0 drops support for Bazel 7, which is still present in the repository's integration test matrix.

[gemini-code-assist]

The release notes for Protobuf v35.0 explicitly state that support for Bazel 7 has been dropped. However, this repository still includes Bazel 7.7.1 in its integration test matrix (see lines 56 and 64). Upgrading to v35.0 will likely cause integration tests running against Bazel 7 to fail. You should remove Bazel 7 from the test matrix or verify if a compatibility workaround is required.
