Anti-trust laws should handle it. Google is using their market power to push users from their competition to their product. It's pretty basic anti-competition behavior that is covered by classic consumer protection laws. I don't think there's any reason why net-neutrality would be needed or apply in this case.
We still need net-neutrality, just not for this reason.
