TST: disable gc in refcount test (#11158)
The vectorize version of this test was failing consistently on several of the Appveyor builds, ever since a recent pytest upgrade.
Our theory is that by random chance, things changed so that during the call to vectorize(op).__call__, python started running a garbage collection, which perturbed the refcounts that this test is checking. (Specifically this test is doing a weird thing and checking that the refcount of the object 1 doesn't decrease, and it's very plausible that some random bit of garbage was holding a reference to this object.)
Disabling the gc during the test makes this kind of refcount assertion more reliable, and seems to have fixed the appveyor builds, so I guess it's good.
