tests: look for ensurepip before using venv

Debian appears to cripple the venv module by default by
removing the associated ensurepip functionality. (The module
isn't present at all.) This caused test-install.t to fail when
using the Debian python3 unless the python3-venv package was
installed.

This commit introduces a new hghave requirement for detecting
ensurepip and makes the Python 3 install variant conditional on
its presence. This should make test-install.t pass when
using an incomplete Debian Python.

 On Python 3, we use the venv module, which is part of the standard library.
+But some Linux distros strip out this module's functionality involving pip,
+so we have to look for the ensurepip module, which these distros strip out
+completely.
 On Python 2, we use the 3rd party virtualenv module, if available.

 Note: we use this weird path to run pip and hg to avoid platform differences,
