Tests: Run `python -m pip` instead of plain `pip`
This allows to run the testsuite on systems where `/usr/bin/pip` is a specific Python version, but the tests are run on a different one. For example in Fedora RPM, when the Python 3 tests are invoked, they should use Python 3 pip, not Python 2 `/usr/bin/pip`. Unlike other approaches, like using `pip2`/`pip3` which is currently done in Fedora RPM (downstream patch), this way it Works Everywhere™ and the downstream patch can be dropped. See https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-setuptools/blob/54eaa03a4dc97f93a5e4c92c55e580a4ab55a058/f/0001-Run-test-on-a-version-specific-pip.patch
