fix: workaround absolute paths appearing in coverage data (#524)

Issue reported here:
aspect-build/bazel-examples#404 (comment)

Now looks like

```
SF:src/__init__.py
DA:1,1
DA:2,1
```

Similar to
https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/blob/466da1d9710289bfb01061b9be7bb124132996e0/python/private/python_bootstrap_template.txt#L336-L346
but ours is a bit more principled since we don't break the abstraction
of what coveragepy happens to do with the paths.


### Changes are visible to end-users: no

### Test plan

- Manual testing; please provide instructions so we can reproduce:
Just `bazel coverage src:test` and inspect the .dat file
