Subject: [PATCH] gh-140482: Avoid changing terminal settings in test_pty
 (gh-142202)

The previous test_spawn_doesnt_hang test had a few problems:

* It would cause ENV CHANGED failures if other tests were running
  concurrently due to stty changes
* Typing while the test was running could cause it to fail
