WORKSPACE setup gives ancient rules_python #698

Users following the install instructions may end up running rules_python 0.1.0 due to https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_pkg/blob/main/pkg/deps.bzl#L36 It depends whether they call rules_pkg_dependencies() earlier during their WORKSPACE setup than some other macro that installs a newer rules_python.

(note, bzlmod users don't have this problem thanks to Minimal Version Selection)
