Should we add this to the env no engine yaml? @YarShev sufgested doing so on the last PR. Besides that, LGTM!

@RehanSD, @YarShev says here that he wants to pin the protobuf level there because that file is used in the test test-ray-master, but ray master already requires protobuf < 4.0.0, as I mentioned here.
