Our devel/py-test is quite old: although the latest version is 8.*, that
has breaking changes that may well break things for us. This update
pushes things to 7.4.4, which will warn about upcoming deprecations:
hopefully we can use this as a bridge to an 8.* port at some point in
the future.

I've tested this on several Python ports (including fastecdsa,
py-cryptography, py-Pillow, gdal (minor failures, but not py-test
related) amongst others), and so far nothing that wasn't broken before
seems broken by this update. However, further testing wouldn't hurt.

[I've also hacked the test suite to pass. I appreciate that this isn't
how everyone wants to work, so please feel free to commit, or not, those
patches as you wish.]
