py_binary with hermetic toolchain requires a system interpreter#691

Description

@jpgxs

馃悶 bug report

Affected Rule

py_binary

Description

Running py_binary without a system interpreter (using a toolchain configured with python_register_toolchain)
fails with the following error:

/usr/bin/env: 'python3': No such file or directory

After installing a system python3, the rule runs fine and uses the correct Python interpreter (not the system one).
