[issue46647] `test_functools` unexpected failures when C `_functoolsmodule` is missing

[Nikita Sobolev]

Cristian, in this case - is there a reason to keep `skipUnless(c_functools)` around? 

If we are sure that it is always available - then it should be always tested. 

We either should have:
1. Cleanly defined skips that work (this PR)
2. Unconditional coverage

Or do you think that some middle-ground is possible?
