Fix Pytorch3D PnP test

Summary:
EPnP fails the test when the number of points is below 6. As suggested, quadratic option is in theory to deal with as few as 4 points (so num_pts_thresh=3 is set). And when num_pts > num_pts_thresh=4, skip_q is False.

To avoid bumping num_pts_thresh while passing all the original tests, check_output is set to False when num_pts < 6, similar to the logic in Line 123-127.  It makes sure that the algo doesn't crash.
