Motivation for this change

Fix for #106058

Like a number of other modules, the newer version of pytest_xdist
simply does not work on a python 2.x interpreter, resulting in
instantiation errors for tools using the 2.x interpreter like:

error: pytest-xdist-2.1.0 not supported for interpreter python2.7
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)

This change uses the same strategy as those other modules to
conditionalize the version that is selected on the version of the
python interpreter.

I would like to keep this working for a while, at least, since the
DeDRM plugin for Calibre only works under python2 for the moment.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.
