In flatbuffers, build_defs.bzl has been updated to have the
bazel rule `flatbuffer_cc_library` defined. Therefore, it should
be possible to build another application and using `flatbuffer_cc_library`
directly (by `load("@com_github_google_flatbuffers//:build_defs.bzl", "flatbuffer_cc_library")`)
However, when I tried to do the above, I saw the following errors in bazel:
```
ERROR: /root/.cache/bazel/_bazel_root/c27e9809996ce9a9c0ed8dd79ef0897b/external/arrow/BUILD.bazel:12:1: in deps attribute of cc_library rule @arrow//:arrow_format: target '@arrow//:runtime_cc' does not exist. Since this rule was created by the macro 'flatbuffer_cc_library', the error might have been caused by the macro implementation in /root/.cache/bazel/_bazel_root/c27e9809996ce9a9c0ed8dd79ef0897b/external/com_github_google_flatbuffers/build_defs.bzl:216:16
```
The reason for the bazel error was that `//:runtime_cc` and `//:flatc` does not have
the repo name prefixed.
By prefix `` the above bazel build error could be resolved.
This fix should help other programs to use flatbuffers directly through bazel.
