Subject: test/pytest_suite: auto-create .venv via python3+pip when uv is unavailable
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb/index.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3116f556b910b9a7842d2f8d31ffa00ca140a8e4;p=thirdparty%2Fapache%2Fhttpd.git

test/pytest_suite: auto-create .venv via python3+pip when uv is unavailable

runtests.sh already bootstrapped the virtualenv with `uv sync` when uv
was present, but exited with an error when it was not.  Fall back to
`python3 -m venv .venv && .venv/bin/pip install -e .` so the suite is
self-bootstrapping on systems that have only a stock Python 3 install.
