Declare 'google' namespace when importing Python protobuf via Bazel.
`python/google/__init__.py` declares the top-level 'google' namespace so that `google.protobuf` can be imported alongside other Google Python modules like `google.auth`. This works well when installing protobuf via Pip, but the Bazel `//:python_srcs` rule doesn't include this file in its `srcs`. Bazel implicitly creates an empty `google/__init__.py`, which does *not* set up a namespace. The result is that consuming Python protobuf via Bazel breaks all other Google Python libraries. This fixes #4658.
