[3.14] gh-138621: Increase test coverage for csv.DictReader and csv.Sniffer (GH-138622) (#141436)

gh-138621: Increase test coverage for csv.DictReader and csv.Sniffer (GH-138622)

* Increase test coverage for csv.DictReader and csv.Sniffer

Previously there were no tests for the DictReader fieldnames
setter, the case where a StopIteration was encountered when trying
to determine the fieldnames from the content or the case where
Sniffer could not find a delimiter.

* Revert whitespace change to comment

* Add a test that csv.Sniffer.has_header checks up to 20 rows

* Replace name and age with letter and offset



* Address review comment

---------
(cherry picked from commit 0e88be6)
