gh-98458: unittest: bugfix for infinite loop while handling chained exceptions that contain cycles (#98459)
* Bugfix addressing infinite loop while handling self-referencing chained exception in TestResult._clean_tracebacks() * Bugfix extended to properly handle exception cycles in _clean_tracebacks. The "seen" set follows the approach used in the TracebackException class (thank you @iritkatriel for pointing it out) * adds a test for a single chained exception that holds a self-loop in its __cause__ and __context__ attributes
