It is not clear yet how we should proceed with this deprecation
because `pytest.Item.reportinfo` is public API and returns a `py.path` object,
and is not clear how plugins and our examples should handle that.
Reverting just the deprecation aspect of #8251 so we can get a 7.0.0 release out.
We will reintroduce the deprecation later once we have a clear path moving forward with replacing `reportinfo`.

`Parser` is used by many plugins and custom hooks. `OptionGroup` is
exposed by the `parser.addgroup` API.
The constructors of both are marked private, they are not meant to be
constructed directly.
It is not very clear why this code exists -- we are not running any
unittest or nose code during collection, and really these frameworks
don't have the concept of collection at all, and just raising these
exceptions at e.g. the module level would cause an error. So unless I'm
missing something, I don't think anyone is using this.
Deprecate it so we can eventually clear up this code and keep unittest
more tightly restricted to its plugin.
This is a follow up to 3f8200676f which didn't
make it clear that log_print is also removed in the changelog and didn't remove
it from the reference docs.
This introduces a new role, `:globalvar:`, so we can mark/reference
variables like `pytest_plugins`, `pytestmark`, etc. This besides being useful
also makes the documentation look more consistent.
This function is exposed and kept alive for the oejskit plugin which is
abandoned and no longer works with recent plugins, so let's prepare to
completely remove it.
As we did not provide an alternative yet, it is better to postpone
the actual removal until we have provided a suitable and stable
alternative.
