Fix or disable failing unit tests

[jmarrec]

Issue overview

At least these tests are failing sometimes (but often enough to be really annoying). They should be fixed or disabled.

• EnergyPlusFixture.ForwardTranslatorTest_MultiThreadedLogMessages (Failed):
  • this is known, cf Add consistently failing test for warnings/errorsa and document #3912
• BCLFixture: I think this looks like a timeout issue from web requests... they fail after 60s of not completing. May be a firewall thing.
  • BCLFixture.RemoteBCLTest (SIGTRAP)
  • BCLFixture.GetComponentByUID (SIGTRAP)

@kbenne @joseph-robertson @tijcolem seen any other?

The list of tests that CI has filtered out is this FYI:

  failingTests = [
    'ModelFixture.Space_intersectSurfaces_degenerate1',
    'ModelFixture.Space_intersectSurfaces_degenerate2',
    'ModelFixture.Space_intersectSurfaces_degenerate3',
    'ModelFixture.ThreeJSReverseTranslator_FloorplanJS_SimAUD_Paper',
    'CLITest-test_encodings-encoding',
    'CLITest-test_encodings-encoding2'
  ];

I think we can swap BCL components to make this faster to download. For some reason, some components can take over 3 min to download. The one in our test suite is problematic.
