In a couple of python module tests, we try to test things that rely on
the default python being the same one we look up in the python module.
This is unsolvable for the deprecated python3 module, as it actually
uses the in-process version of python for everything. For the python
module, we could actually look up the default system python instead of
the one we are running with, but then we wouldn't be testing the
functionality of that alternative python... and also the install
manifest tests would see files installed for the wrong version of
python, and report a combination of missing+extra files...
Solve both tests by just skipping the parts we cannot check.
D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.
Fixes#7082
This doesn't touch everything as it's just based on the python3 module
tests, ported to the python module. It's still better than the one very
basic test in the unit test module.
