Python types have reference cycles to themselves when they are created. This is
partially caused by descriptors which get / set values from the __dict__
attribute for getattr / setattr on classes.
This is not normally an issue since types tend to remain referenced for the
lifetime of the Python process (and thus never become garbage).
However, in the case of PseudoFixtureDef, the class is generated in
_get_active_fixturedef and later discarded when pytest_fixture_setup returns.
As a result, the generated PseudoFixtureDef type becomes garbage.
This is not really a performance issue but it can lead to some problems when
making tests and assertions about garbage when using pytest.
This garbage creation problem can be rectified by returning a namedtuple
instance which is functionally the same. In the modified code, the namedtuple
is allocated / deallocated using reference counting rather than having to use
the garbage collector.

## What is CodeTriage?
CodeTriage is an Open Source app that is designed to make contributing to Open Source projects easier. It works by sending subscribers a few open issues in their inbox. If subscribers get busy, there is an algorithm that backs off issue load so they do not get overwhelmed

This option is superseded by the --show-capture option. With --no-print-logs
it was possible to only disable the reporting of captured logs, which is no
longer possible with --show-capture. If --show-capture=no is used, no
captured content (stdout, stderr and logs) is reported for failed tests.
