Allow setting a copy_to_dist_dir's visibility attribute.
If another rule (e.g. another exec rule) in another package wants to use
a given copy_to_dist_dir macro, that rule's visibility will have to be
correctly set.
This CL allows setting the underlying embedded_exec's visiblity
attribute.
Test: Created an exec rule that referenced a copy_to_dist_dir rule in
another package and successfully executed the exec rule.
