Description

# 🐞 bug report

### Affected Rule

Gazelle

### Is this a regression?

Still checking

### Description

Presence of `__main__.py` prevents other `*.py` files from being mapped as `py_binary` targets.

## 🔬 Minimal Reproduction

Add one file to `gazelle/python/testdata/per_file`:

```python
# gazelle/python/testdata/per_file/my_binary.py
if __name__ == "__main__":
print("hey")
```

Run the test (from the `gazelle/` dir) `bazel test //python:python_test_per_file` and see that a `py_binary` target is added. So far so good!

Now add a `__main__.py` file, no content needed: `touch gazelle/python/testdata/per_file/__main__.py`

And run the test again. You'll see that `my_binary.py` was incorrectly added as a `py_library` target.

This is the "correct" `BUILD.out` file:
