Fixes #377
Even though messing with init.py is a little risky, in this case its safer since we only generate it while symlinking files from external repositories into venv, and since /~https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/blob/18f76f9cc4c3c6c4470f7a881e6ea4e8b80d7bab/python/runfiles/__init__.py#L15 is simple line, i can't think of easier fix than this.
