Description
# 🐞 bug report
### Affected Rule
compile_pip_requirements
### Is this a regression?
Not sure.
### Description
In some situations it is possible to get a conflict between the python module from the coverage package and the python package from the runfiles library. I would say this is due to the slightly risky use of "python" as a module/package name and the import `from python.runfiles import runfiles` in dependency_resolver.py.
## 🔬 Minimal Reproduction
```
cd examples/multi_python_versions
bazel coverage --incompatible_default_to_explicit_init_py //requirements:requirements_3_10_test
```
## 🔥 Exception or Error
```
