Playbook using kubernetes.core fails when using mitogen_linear strategy

[markafarrell]

When running a simple playbook to create a namespace using kuberenetes.core.k8s module fails with the following error when mitogen is enabled.

PLAY [Create a namespace] *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

See https://github.com/markafarrell/mitogen-k8s-google-auth-repro for reproduction instructions.

It appears to be related to the version of google-auth python module that is installed.

Using version 2.21.0 the playbook can be successfully run with mitogen but using version 2.22.0 causes the above failure.

https://github.com/googleapis/google-auth-library-python/compare/v2.21.0...v2.22.0#diff-f7c93c24116089dc7e88f361b4c769fd33bbf2b7b38d902945d8b226dc4b5c9b

This issue is not encountered when using the normal linear strategy (i.e with mitogen disabled)

Hi, problem comes from this PR - https://github.com/googleapis/google-auth-library-python/pull/1205

If I create empty file touch /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/google/__init__.py everything start working with mitogen without errors on import google module.
