Description
I have problem with pyoxidizer 0.9.0 and sys.argv. I make simple test app (via pyoxidizer init-config-file pyapp)
[/tmp/pyapp] $ cat foo/bar.py
import sys
def main():
print("argv:", sys.argv)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
and run it with parameters
/tmp/pyapp/./build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/debug/install/pyapp foo bar
argv: [None, 'foo', 'bar']
As you can see, first element in argv is None.
May be I need some config options for pyoxidizer.bzl?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with foo/bar.py and the generated build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/debug/install/pyapp command, then trace how PyOxidizer initializes Python's sys.argv. Check the pyoxidizer.bzl configuration and the runtime entry point mentioned by the reproduction; done means the installed application reports its executable path as argv[0] while preserving the supplied arguments.
