Reproducible tests

Description

I have seen some Python tests failing in a non-deterministic manner.

  • https://github.com/ietf-tools/datatracker/actions/runs/10786037653/job/29912248540#step:6:1902
  • https://github.com/ietf-tools/datatracker/actions/runs/10802493115/job/29964666951?pr=7921#step:6:1897

They are not always reproducible, and they usually pass when retried.

It would be helpful to identify where the source of such randomness is in the tests, and ensure more consistent behaviour.
