gnu: python-astropy: Improve packages style.

* gnu/packages/astronomy.scm (python-astropy): Adjust package style.
[arguments] <#:phases>: Simplify 'preparations, move step setting up
HOME env to 'prepare-test-environment phase.
Add 'prepare-test-environment phase, consolidating all pre test
procedures.
{check}: Add option to run test in parallel to accelerate them. Remove
from disabled list tests which were passed successfully.
