do not run scipy easyblock tests for runtest = False

[Thyre]

(created using eb --new-pr)

Currently, a set runtest = False in the EasyConfig is completely ignored by the EasyBlock, causing the tests to be executed either way. On our systems, this can lead to a significant oversubscription due to user limits, depending on where the software is built (e.g. login node) and which user builds it. As a consequence, the tests are running for ages, partially into build job timeouts.

At the same time, we do not want to skip tests altogether. The NumPy and SciPy test suites can be executed later on, so we prefer this approach.

As such, allow a user to explicitly disable running the tests.

it is of no use to you (unless you think I have a bug, which I don't).
