Fix full test errors (#255)

* debugging

* working fast tests

* passing tests

* pin lifelines<0.28 as 0.28 does not support python 3.8

* debugging lifelines files error

* lifelines==0.27.7

* fix version pin

* revert to strict pin

* lifelines version constraints as generic as possible

* split core tests into fast and slow and increase timeout

* split slow tests into two

* update version
