Timeout issue in hoctests::test_nrniv-launch_py

[iomaganaris]

Context

Intel compiler builds sometimes fail in a test with timeout issues possible related to quit() function not returning from the interpreter.
Rerunning the CI seems to fix the issue and the CI passes.

Overview of the CI issue

See the log below:

Expected result/behavior

We need to make sure that there are no issues with the interpreter exiting with quit() or the Intel compilers
