python_repository: Exclude pycache files (#907)
python_repository: Exclude pycache files when root
Some of these are missing from the upstream python distributions, and
when they are, if running as root, this causes the files to be generated
the first time their associated .py file is evaluated, causing analysis
and execution cache misses due to extra files matching the repository glob.
