Cache execnet gateway info during WorkerController setup for backward
compatibility, in order to avoid a later main_thread_only deadlock
error triggered when pytest-cov calls rinfo after the main thread is
already busy. See pytest-dev/execnet#274 for corresponding test case.
Fixes: 20e3ac774e ("Use execnet main_thread_only execmodel (#1027)")

The `pytest-xdist`_ plugin extends pytest with new test execution modes, the most used being distributing
tests across multiple CPUs to speed up test execution::
pytest -n auto
With this call, pytest will spawn a number of workers processes equal to the number of available CPUs, and distribute
the tests randomly across them.
