It's not a version test. I've already done that for clangd, per Michael's
request.  Here, pylsp's Debian packaging seems just to be buggy.

Michael has previously found another buggy way to install clangd for
example, some method that created a 'clangd' script that didn't
even respond to `--version`.  Those things are very hard to check against
and it's just not worth it.

No he didn't.  He _didn't_ explain what bad thing would come to the
world if pip install was added to the EMBA scripts.

Alternatively, simply don't install any pylsp on EMBA.  Boom, also
problem solved. Eventually, I will rework those tests to not rely on
pylsp at all, and I'll use something else to test those parts of eglot.el

But spending time answering these mails doesn't make any progress in
that direction.
