googletest: Add testonly alias of :gtest for testonly cc_libraries to use.

While a testonly library can certainly depend on a non-testonly library, gtest
itself is logically testonly, but is not tagged as such for historical
reasons. Having a testonly target allows gradual migrations towards a
testonly-only world.
