bpo-45512: Raise exception if sqlite3.Connection.__init__ is called with bad isolation level (#29561)

* bpo-45512: Raise sqlite3.Connection.__init__ is called with bad isolation level

* Also explicitly test allowed isolation levels

* Use subTest for better error messages if something goes wrong

* Update Lib/test/test_sqlite3/test_dbapi.py
