Optional: The import path generated by grpc_tools.protoc can be counterintuitive grpc/grpc#9575. In the config file, we might want to provide the flexibility to: 1. set the work directory; 2. the "prefixes_to_filter" argument.
CC @gnossen , if you got a second, can you help about how to use "prefixes_to_filter" in our generator?

prefixes_to_filter is currently not available in grpcio-tools, only in the Bazel rules, so I think it's okay to leave it out of this proposal, at least initially. Regardless, this is the best reference on usage.

| they were generated. |

Can we update the example to show how the proto to Python generation should work?
Add some more specifics on how the end user would enable to functionality
