MNT: Move test for old ipython behavior to minver tests

timhoffm · timhoffm · commit 1ce69117f97b · 2025-03-18T22:08:10.000+01:00
While not exactly a minver test, it's semantically related in that it
changes rather old package versions. This should help declutter the test
 matrix and make the upcoming transition to newer ubuntu images and
 dropping
 python 3.10 simpler.
