test_xml_etree.py: Fix for Expat >=2.6.0 with reparse deferral

Fix etree XMLPullParser tests for Expat >=2.6.0 with reparse deferral

Combined with gh#python/cpython!31453
bpo-46811: Make test suite support Expat >=2.4.5 (pythonGH-31453)

Curly brackets were never allowed in namespace URIs
according to RFC 3986, and so-called namespace-validating
XML parsers have the right to reject them a invalid URIs.

libexpat >=2.4.5 has become strcter in that regard due to
related security issues; with ET.XML instantiating a
namespace-aware parser under the hood, this test has no
future in CPython.

Also, test_minidom.py: Support Expat >=2.4.5
(cherry picked from commit 2cae938)
