When the method argument is missing on teardown_method, the traceback is
100% internal to pytest, which with default options get pruned. Then
that traceback is empty, leading to a new exception as a traceback shall
not be empty.
This PR fixes that issue by pushing back the last stack on the
traceback, when the stacktrace is empty after pruning. Then the output
is still pruned, but gives meaningful information with the item where it
failed on the stack.

for the already existing cleanup logic of the config object.
This simplifies lifecycle management as we don't keep two
layers of shutdown functions and also simplifies the pluginmanager
interface.
also add some docstrings.

refactoring how nodeid's are constructed. They now are always
relative to the "common rootdir" of a test run which is determined by
finding a common ancestor of all testrun arguments.

updated plugin index docs. Thanks Bruno Oliveira.
fix issue557: with "-k" we only allow the old style "-" for negation
at the beginning of strings and even that is deprecated. Use "not" instead.
This should allow to pick parametrized tests where "-" appeared in the parameter.
From the python-dev thread it seemed like using
object.__getattribute__(self, 'name') is the cleanest way of
implementing a class wich uses .__getattr__() and should be
pickelable. That only works on new-style classes so this also turns
HookProxy into a new-style class on py2.
This also re-writes the test to not use cPickle so it runs on py3k.
The new "--tb=auto" option (default) will only display long tracebacks
for the first and last entry. You can get the old behaviour of printing
all entries as long entries with "--tb=long". Also short entries by
default are now printed very similarly to "--tb=native" ones.
Such reference cycles unnecessarily cause Python interpreter not to garbage
collect the objects referenced in those cycles as soon they could be collected,
and in turn cause the tests to use more memory than is strictly necessary.

- node.warn() for a node-specific warning
- config.warn() for a global non-node specific warning
Each warning is accompanied by a "warning number" so that we can later
introduce mechanisms for surpressing them.
Each warning will trigger a call to pytest_report_warn(number, node, message)
which is by default implemented by the TerminalReporter which introduces
a new option "-rw" to show details about warnings.
The only remaining 'py.test' references are:
* those referring to the 'py.test' executable
* those in code explicitly testing py.test/pytest module compatibility
* those in old CHANGES documentation
* those in documentation generated based on external data
* those in seemingly unfinished & unmaintained Japanese documentation
Minor stylistic changes and typo corrections made to documentation next to
several applied py.test --> pytest content changes.
The need for comparing two separately instantiated nodes seems to be historic
(related to an already-gone mode of pytest-xdist which would re-collect nodes)
and not actually needed anymore.
in a test invocation will have a corresponding FixtureDef instance.
also fixes issue246 (again).
simplify parametrized fixture teardown by making it work lazy:
during the setup of a parametrized fixture instance any previously
setup instance which was setup with a different param is torn down
before setting up the new one.
