run-tests: skip threading for a single test

Threading is incompatible with most Python debuggers,
which makes debugging run-tests.py a real pain.

If there is only one test to run, skip using a thread for it.

Note that --debug is not compatible with debugging tests,
since it bypasses the output handling, which is where
much of the excitement is.
