python3.8 can run only buildout versions greater than 2.7.1+slapos019
which restrict a lot the number of SR buildable by slapos.

this prevents ResourceWarning because this way the sockets are closed

see commit e6deadaca7f4469ab32e028cdbb029acc9c7d3c3 from slapos.core:

We fork a subprocess to serve requests, but the listening socket is bound
in server constructor and inherited by subprocess. With this pattern, we
have to explicitly close the socket from parent process to prevent the
leak.

Now that this test is python 3, test output has lots of warnings like this:

    software/caddy-frontend/test/test.py:305: ResourceWarning: unclosed file <_io.TextIOWrapper name='software/caddy-frontend/test/test_data/test.TestEnableHttp2ByDefaultFalseSlave.test00cluster_request_instance_parameter_dict.txt' mode='r' encoding='UTF-8'>
      test_data = open(test_data_file).read().strip()
    ResourceWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback

revert nexedi/slapos@fac8ceb5  now that mroonga install.sql is fixed

html5as-base, grafana and metabase are python3 software releases
and we don't need to run these tests twice for python2 and python3.

This continues the changes from a576000f (software/html5as: serialize
as json-in-xml, 2022-08-19) to fix a test failure and serialize also
in json-in-xml for the replicate software type.

Minor changes to tests were made, to use assertIn for better messages
in case of assertion failures

after slapos commit cc7f36a0 (component/defaults: use python3 by
default, 2022-08-27) this test accidentally switched to using python3.

using python3 showed an incompatibility:

   File ".nxdtest", line 23, in <module>
     TestCase('transaction',['python', '-m', 'unittest', 'discover', '-s', P(transaction)])
   File ".nxdtest", line 22, in P
     def P(path): return os.path.join(path, '..')
   File "lib/python3.8/posixpath.py", line 90, in join
     genericpath._check_arg_types('join', a, *p)
   File "lib/python3.8/genericpath.py", line 155, in _check_arg_types
     raise TypeError("Can't mix strings and bytes in path components") from None
 TypeError: Can't mix strings and bytes in path components

that we also address here by using universal_newlines to the subprocess

test.cfg becomes the python3 version
a new test-py2.cfg is introduced
test-py3.cfg is removed

cf slapos commit cc7f36a0 (component/defaults: use python3 by default, 2022-08-27)

Change python2 softwares to use python2 explicitly and python3
softwares to use the default, but leave a few softwares (html5as,
html5as-base, fluent-bit, packer, seleniumrunner) using the default
python, as they were using python2 not because they only support python2
but because they don't have strong dependency to the python version
being used.

so we will not forget to update it

See merge request nexedi/slapos!1233

Remove the "--disable-static" configure option. Fix the warning message: "configure: WARNING: unrecognized option: '--disable-static'".

Resolve `@theia/core` subdependency `vscode-uri` to a locally installed patched version, to workaround https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/154048.

This fixes access to Theia through the IPv6 `backend-url`. That issue was discussed in nexedi/slapos!1204

The patched version of `vscode-uri` is published here: https://github.com/xavth/vscode-uri/tree/fix/ipv6_url_authority

To do this, `yarn.lock` was regenerated, so this also caused a version up to Theia 1.28.0.
