start shopping_cart.py on local development

I can't to get shopping_cart.py or ./tck.sh running out of the box on macOS with a fresh cloned repository, but found a way to do it. I setup a virtual environment to get not interfered with potential earlier dependencies installed.

What I did This is my command history in a fresh directory:

> git clone https://github.com/cloudstateio/python-support.git

> export PYTHONPATH=`pwd`

then I try to start the shopping cart:

> python shoppingcart/shopping_cart.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "shoppingcart/shopping_cart.py", line 2, in <module>
    from shoppingcart.shopping_cart_entity import entity as shopping_cart_entity

    from google.api import annotations_pb2 as google_dot_api_dot_annotations__pb2
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'google.api'

    CloudState().register_event_sourced_entity(shopping_cart_entity).serve()
AttributeError: 'CloudState' object has no attribute 'serve'

Then replace `.serve()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    logging.basicConfig()
    CloudState().register_event_sourced_entity(shopping_cart_entity).serve()

with .start():

    CloudState().register_event_sourced_entity(shopping_cart_entity).start()

and this gets me the shopping cart started:

> python shoppingcart/shopping_cart.py
'Starting Cloudstate on 127.0.0.1:8080'

Suggested Fix

add googleapis-common-protos as a dependency
call start() instead of server() in shopping_cart.py

The module error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'google.api' shows that the *pb2.py file we have under python-support/google/api/ can't be found, but perhaps we even should not distribute by ourselfs so I installed them a a dependency with pip install googleapis-common-protos. We can add this dependency in general in setup.cfg I think.
