Added an ``__str__`` implementation to the :class:`~pytest.pytester.LineMatcher` class which is returned from ``pytester.run_pytest().stdout`` and similar. It returns the entire output, like the existing ``str()`` method.

New :fixture:`pytester` fixture, which is identical to :fixture:`testdir` but its methods return :class:`pathlib.Path` when appropriate instead of ``py.path.local``.
This is part of the movement to use :class:`pathlib.Path` objects internally, in order to remove the dependency to ``py`` in the future.
Internally, the old :class:`Testdir <_pytest.pytester.Testdir>` is now a thin wrapper around :class:`Pytester <_pytest.pytester.Pytester>`, preserving the old interface.

Directly constructing/calling the following classes/functions is now deprecated:
- ``_pytest.cacheprovider.Cache``
- ``_pytest.cacheprovider.Cache.for_config()``
- ``_pytest.cacheprovider.Cache.clear_cache()``
- ``_pytest.cacheprovider.Cache.cache_dir_from_config()``

- ``_pytest.recwarn.WarningsRecorder``
- ``_pytest.recwarn.WarningsChecker``
- ``_pytest.tmpdir.TempPathFactory``
- ``_pytest.tmpdir.TempdirFactory``
These have always been considered private, but now issue a deprecation warning, which may become a hard error in pytest 7.0.0.

It is now possible to construct a :class:`MonkeyPatch` object directly as ``pytest.MonkeyPatch()``,
in cases when the :fixture:`monkeypatch` fixture cannot be used. Previously some users imported it
from the private `_pytest.monkeypatch.MonkeyPatch` namespace.
The types of builtin pytest fixtures are now exported so they may be used in type annotations of test functions.
The newly-exported types are:
- ``pytest.FixtureRequest`` for the :fixture:`request` fixture.
- ``pytest.Cache`` for the :fixture:`cache` fixture.
- ``pytest.CaptureFixture[str]`` for the :fixture:`capfd` and :fixture:`capsys` fixtures.
- ``pytest.CaptureFixture[bytes]`` for the :fixture:`capfdbinary` and :fixture:`capsysbinary` fixtures.
- ``pytest.LogCaptureFixture`` for the :fixture:`caplog` fixture.
- ``pytest.Pytester`` for the :fixture:`pytester` fixture.
- ``pytest.Testdir`` for the :fixture:`testdir` fixture.
- ``pytest.TempdirFactory`` for the :fixture:`tmpdir_factory` fixture.
- ``pytest.TempPathFactory`` for the :fixture:`tmp_path_factory` fixture.
- ``pytest.MonkeyPatch`` for the :fixture:`monkeypatch` fixture.
- ``pytest.WarningsRecorder`` for the :fixture:`recwarn` fixture.
Constructing them is not supported (except for `MonkeyPatch`); they are only meant for use in type annotations.
Doing so will emit a deprecation warning, and may become a hard-error in pytest 7.0.
Subclassing them is also not supported. This is not currently enforced at runtime, but is detected by type-checkers such as mypy.

The ``--strict`` command-line option has been deprecated, use ``--strict-markers`` instead.
We have plans to maybe in the future to reintroduce ``--strict`` and make it an encompassing flag for all strictness
related options (``--strict-markers`` and ``--strict-config`` at the moment, more might be introduced in the future).

Additionally, :meth:`MonkeyPatch.context <pytest.MonkeyPatch.context>` is now a classmethod,

``MonkeyPatch`` directly, since unlike the ``monkeypatch`` fixture, an instance created directly
is not ``undo()``-ed automatically.
