Migrate packages away from "python setup.py test"

[mweinelt]

The latest setuptools release has removed support for running tests through python setup.py test. Packages that explicitly call that command will start failing after #331098.

Check how upstream runs tests in 2024, ideally you can migrate to pytestCheckHook or unittestCheckHook instead.

This change is scheduled for the next staging cycle, which I estimate to start in the next ten days..
