meson @0.63.3 is missing a test dependency

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

I am still using Python 3.9. When I run port -vds test meson I get asked:

The following dependencies will be installed: 
 py39-attrs
 py39-iniconfig
 py39-pluggy
 py39-py
 py39-pytest
 py39-setuptools_scm
 py39-typing_extensions
Continue? [Y/n]: DEBUG: Starting logging for py39-attrs @22.1.0_0

DEBUG: MacPorts 2.7.2

but then the tests fail here:

Obviously py39-pytest-xdist is not listed as test dependency.

Installing py39-pytest-xdist, re-building meson and testing again leads to:

Problem with Python 3.9 returning the wrong CPU family name?

ah, this is a side-effect of my (more recent) changes in the python PG where it is assumed that pytest is used as the testing framework, which is the case in 99.9% of the cases. For meson however it isn't used so that requires the python.test_framework to be cleared; I will commit that change shortly; the -o addopts="" is only added when pytest is used so that issue should be resolved.
