[issue10992] tests failing when run under coverage

[Brett Cannon]

Brett Cannon <brett at python.org> added the comment:

Attached is a patch against test_gc that shows what I think should be done for the tests failing because of refcounts. Basically I added a refcount_test decorator to test.support that skips a decorated test if it is not being run under CPython and otherwise unsets the trace function.

This should work for all tests that are discovered to fail because of refcounts.
