[3.12] gh-108822: regrtest computes statistics (#108793)

[vstinner]

test_netrc, test_pep646_syntax and test_xml_etree now return results in the test_main() function.

Changes:

• Rewrite TestResult as a dataclass with a new State class.
• Add test.support.TestStats class and Regrtest.stats_dict attribute.
• libregrtest.runtest functions now modify a TestResult instance in-place.
• libregrtest summary lists the number of run tests and skipped tests, and denied resources.
• Add TestResult.has_meaningful_duration() method.
• Compute TestResult duration in the upper function.
• Use time.perf_counter() instead of time.monotonic().
• Regrtest: rename 'resource_denieds' attribute to 'resource_denied'.
• Rename CHILD_ERROR to MULTIPROCESSING_ERROR.
• Use match/case syntadx to have different code depending on the test state.

Notes on the backport: doctest.TestResults.skipped is a new feature in Python 3.13, so don't use it in the backport.

In general, I'm trying to keep libregrtest the same in all stable branches.

Python 3.11 has an outdated libregrtest. I wrote to backport regrtest changes of last months to Python 3.11: #108820 I just merged my PR.

Thanks. IMO it's good to have it! If there is any regression, well, it will be fixed as usual :-)
