Python PreCommit flaking in PipelineOptionsTest.test_display_data

[damccorm]

Seeing this failure pretty frequently on PreCommit since yesterday (06/17).

The first failure in precommit cron was here: https://ci-beam.apache.org/job/beam_PreCommit_Python_cron/4327/

Seems related to BEAM-10006, but I'm not sure what changed to make this start flaking recently.

self = <apache_beam.options.pipeline_options_test.PipelineOptionsTest testMethod=test_display_data>


   def test_display_data(self):
      for case in PipelineOptionsTest.TEST_CASES:
        options
= PipelineOptions(flags=case['flags'])
        dd = DisplayData.create_from(options)
>       hc.assert_that(dd.items,
hc.contains_inanyorder(*case['display_data']))
