message: In TensorFlow configure, write the .tf_configure.bazelrc into the --workspace path if provided.
  This allows repositories that depend on TensorFlow to execute
  'bazel run -- --workspace $(pwd)'
  to configure TensorFlow.
  END_PUBLIC
  Before this change, the .tf_configure.bazelrc ended up in the bazel exec root, and 'bazel clean' would undo the configuration.
