python3Packages.jax: remove pytest-xdist

This dependency has caused nothing but trouble for us since its introduction. It offers moderate test suite speedups, but at the cost of frequent OOM failures in CI, including Hydra and nixpkgs-upkeep. Furthermore, the test suite takes only 1.5 CPU-hrs, limiting xdist's utility.
