Description
The canonical workspace name -- i.e. the name appearing in the workspace() declaration, documentation, examples, and code -- is currently @io_bazel_rules_python. We should change this to @rules_python for consistency with @rules_cc, @rules_java, etc.
This reflects how this repository is (or ought to be) the canonical home for all things Python in Bazel, and is especially important in light of bazelbuild/bazel#8893. As part of that work, Bazel itself may begin to assume that the core Python rules (py_binary, etc.) are available under a @rules_python repo.
