The result from the pytest_assertrepr_compare hook should not include
any newlines since that will confuse the mini-formatting language used
by assertion.util.format_explanation. So simply escape the included
newlines, this way hook writers do not have to worry about this at
all.
Fixes issue 453.
Prevent error on exit if some code messes with sys.meta_path and removes the
assertionrewrite hook (CaptureMock seems to do this):
File "/Users/marca/dev/hg-repos/pytest/_pytest/assertion/__init__.py", line 64, in pytest_unconfigure
sys.meta_path.remove(hook)
ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list

branch : sys_meta_path_remove_hook_only_if_present
Before this was only done at the time the assertion plugin was loaded.
This lead to counter-intuitive behaviour where two subdirectories with
a pytest_assertrepr_compare hook in their conftest.py would not work,
only one would ever be used.
This defers assiging the _pytest.assertion.util._reprcompare function
until the item is loaded (pytest_runtest_setup) so that it can use the
hookrelay of the test item to find the appropriate
pytest_assertrepr_compare hook for the item.
This fixes issue #77.
Use load_module on the import hook to load the rewritten module. This allows the
removal of the complicated code related to copying pyc files in and out of the
cache location. It also plays more nicely with parallel py.test processes like
the ones found in xdist.
