This change aims to make bazel build more embeeding-friendly.
Namely, when PyTorch is included as an external repo in another project, it is usually included like this
```
native.local_repository(
name = "pytorch",
path = ...,
repo_mapping = repo_mapping,
)
```
Or
```
http_archive(
name = "pytorch",
urls = ...
repo_mapping = repo_mapping,
)
```
In this case, references to `@//` would resolve to the top-level WORKSPACE that includes PyTorch.
That makes upgrades harder because we need to carry around this patch.
Note that under some edge-case circumstances even `//` resolves to the top-level `WORKSPACE`.
This change makes the embedding of the bazel build easier without compromising anything for the main repo, since the `@pytorch//` still refers to the same thing.
