[tor-commits] [stem/master] Run asychronous tests in a subprocess

commit 4fe31c5fa8444fed4ccb2d5c47a5191ab0f1b730

    Run asychronous tests in a subprocess
    
    Fully parallelizing asynchronously run tests to avoid the GIL. This doesn't
    have a noticeable impact on our installation runtime (it causes the install
    test to be slower, but the overall runtime to be the same). That said, in
    theory should benefit others. I'll probably experiment back and forth between
    this and threads as we expand the tests which do this.
