This changes a bunch of incidentially used constructs in the PL/Python
regression tests to equivalent constructs in cases where Python 3 no longer
supports the old syntax. Support for older Python versions is unchanged.

inherited from a previous test infrastructure, but makes working with the
tests and adding new ones weird.
