Adjust HTML reports in tests to support newer libxml (python#20199)

sterliakov · web-flow · commit 66dd2c146be9 · 2025-11-06T23:44:39.000-08:00
Fixes python#20070. I tested this manually in debian:sid container with `libxml2-16` installed via `apt` and `lxml==6.0.2` built against it (`--no-binary`). HTML reports testcases fail on master as reported and pass on my branch.
