Flag --incompatible_config_setting_private_default_visibility will break rules_python in Bazel 7.0

[sgowroji]

Incompatible flag --incompatible_config_setting_private_default_visibility will be enabled by default in the next major release (Bazel 7.0), thus breaking rules_go. Please migrate to fix this and unblock the flip of this flag.

---> Note that this was not an issue until build #1349 and has been failing from #1351 onwards.

The flag is documented here: https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/12933.

Please check the following CI builds for build and test results:

• Linux (OpenJDK 17, gcc 10.2.1)

• MAC OS (OpenJDK 11, Xcode)

• Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (OpenJDK 11, gcc 9.4.0)

• Windows (OpenJDK 11, VS2019)

• Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (OpenJDK 11, gcc 9.4.0)

Never heard of incompatible flags before? We have documentation that explains everything. If you have any questions, please file an issue in https://github.com/bazelbuild/continuous-integration.

Hi @chrislovecnm, Could you please look in to this issue.Thanks!

[chrislovecnm]

https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/pull/1283 is the only place that I see problems with that flag. Please let me know if that upgrade fixes the problem.
