Description
# 🐞 bug report
### Affected Rule
The issue is caused by the rule: `py_binary`
### Is this a regression?
Yes, the previous version in which this bug was not present was: ....
Unsure
### Description
A clear and concise description of the problem...
When running a `py_binary` zipapp (E.g. `bazel build --build_python_zip `) signals such as `SIGTERM` aren't forwarded to the binary itself, meaning the process doesn't get a chance to clean up.
I suspect https://github.com/bazel-contrib/rules_python/blob/25ad57c85f0094889520486cd9a5738278fd0541/python/private/zipapp/zip_main_template.py#L279-L281 is the source of the issue
## 🔬 Minimal Reproduction
Given
```
import signal
signal.signal(signal.SIGTERM, lambda _1, _2: print("SIGTERM"))
while True:
pass
```
Then `bazel run ` and a `kill -s TERM ` will print `SIGTERM`. But `bazel build --build_python_zip ` followed by a `python .zip` and a `kill -s TERM ` (of the outer process) results in the process being terminated and the underlying process being orphaned 💔

Start with python/private/zipapp/zip_main_template.py around lines 279-281, then reproduce the issue with the provided signal-handling Python program. Compare `bazel run` with executing the built zipapp and verify that SIGTERM reaches the underlying process and allows cleanup without leaving it orphaned.
