TH1.Fit might call into Python functions, which would require the GIL to be held. If TH1.Fit holds it, though, the process deadlocks. Here, the GIL is released before TH1.Fit, which runs fully in C++ anyway. Fix root-project#21080. (cherry picked from commit e8a739a)
This saves startup times and collects TH1 tests in one place. (cherry picked from commit 9372b50)
The timeout of the test is reduced because the deadlock would otherwise show only after 1500s. (cherry picked from commit b14edf9)
(cherry picked from commit d48c865)
