[issue14853] test_file.py depends on sys.stdin being unseekable

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor added the comment:

The same issue was reported for test_file2k: issue #23168.

I modified test_file2k to skip sys.stdin.seek() test if stdin is not a TTY. I prefer to skip a test in a specific case, instead of removing it completly.

I propose to add again the test in test_file, with the skip. See test_file.patch for Python 2.7 (I will addapt it to Python 3 if the patch is accepted for Python 2).
