TST: Increase tolerance of some tests for aarch64

siddhesh · siddhesh · commit 69af4778c94d · 2019-11-07T14:32:59.000+05:30
Some tests differ from expected result on aarch64 by more than the
expected tolerance.  The generated images however remain visually
similar.

The differences appear to be at borders of colours for images,
i.e. edges of fonts, between transitions of colours, etc. and is
possibly due to FP rounding differences at those points.

Bump up tolerance of these tests by a wee bit so that they pass on
aarch64.
