Package.name now contains only basname of the package

Previously it contained the entire path, which made '-k' match
against any name in the full path of the package.

+``-k`` no longer matches against the names of the directories outside the test session root.

+Also, ``pytest.Package.name`` is now just the name of the directory containing the package's
+``__init__.py`` file, instead of the full path. This is consistent with how the other nodes
+are named, and also one of the reasons why ``-k`` would match against any directory containing
+the test suite.
