Since PEP 338 we can run python modules as a script via `python -m
module_name` but there is no way to run pdb on those.

The proposal is to add a new argument "-m" to the pdb module to allow
users to run `python -m pdb -m my_module_name`.

The test is validating where pdb starts therefore the part that is
failing (checking modulename "/" file) is not relevant on that test
