[issue11049] add tests for test.support

[Giampaolo Rodola']

Giampaolo Rodola' <g.rodola at gmail.com> added the comment:

Attached is a patch which tests about half the API.
Certain functions are not documented and/or it's not clear what they do, for others it seems unlikely they are actually used nowadays (although I haven't checked).
Also, it probably makes sense to get rid of some functions which look very old or completely useless.
