This switches over to using the rules_python implementation of py_runtime,
py_runtime_pair, and PyRuntimeInfo for Bazel 6 and higher. Bazel 5 lacks features
(specifically provider ctors) to allow enabling it on that version.

This is possible because the rules don't directly use the PyRuntimeInfo provider
(mostly, see below), they only care about the structure of it as exposed from the
ToolchainInfo provider.

Switching the toolchain providers and rules over early allows some development of
the toolchain prior to Bazel 7 and the rest of the rules_python Starlark implementation
being enabled.

The builtin PyRuntimeInfo is still returned and accepted for two reasons:

  • Better compatibility with the builtin rules to make transitioning easier
  • py_binary has an old, possibly defunct (not sure) code path that will look up the
    the PyRuntimeInfo from a flag/implicit attribute.

Nit, what about using bazel_features package for this? I know that this adds an extra dep, but we are already using that on with bzlmod setups.

Does this mean we can have a custom template on bazel 6? I think that no, but I am not sure if this was just a fixup of previously broken code due to migration.

Nit: I thought we are not supporting PY2?

…der Bazel 6; make python_bootstrap_template public (#1611)

This fixes two bugs from
#1574:
* Bazel 6's py_binary rejects the rules_python Starlark implemented
PyRuntimeInfo.
* python_bootstrap_template.txt isn't public; this prevents py_runtime
from being
  used outside rules_python itself (e.g. in the python toolchain repos)

With Bazel 6, the `py_binary` rule performs a type check of the
PyRuntimeInfo value it gets from the toolchain to verify it is an
instance of the Java-implemented PyRuntimeInfo class. This type check
fails when the provider is implemented in rules_python in Starlark.

To fix, make the `py_runtime_info` prefer the builtin PyRuntimeInfo
provider when running under Bazel 6. The two providers are (currently)
the same, so are mostly interchangable. This satisfies the type check
that `py_binary` performs.

`py_runtime` as an implicit dependency on
`//python/private:python_bootstrap_template.txt`,
but that target is only visible to rules python itself. This means the
py_runtime targets
created in the toolchain repos fail. To fix, make the file public.

Fixes #1610
