gh-101100: Make __subclasses__ doctest stable (#124577)

JelleZijlstra · web-flow · commit 08a467b537b3 · 2024-09-26T06:26:03.000Z
Using a standard library class makes this test difficult to maintain
as other tests and other parts of the stdlib may create subclasses,
which may still be alive when this test runs depending on GC timing.
