pytest has several instances where plugins set their own attributes on
objects they receive in hooks, like nodes and config. Since plugins are
detached from these object's definition by design, this causes a problem
for type checking because these attributes are not defined and mypy
complains.
Fix this by giving these objects a "store" which can be used by plugins
in a type-safe manner.
Currently this mechanism is private. We can consider exposing it at a
later point.

The help for the '--runxfail' flag is somewhat misleading. The default
behaviour is to run tests marked as 'xfail' but to ignore the results. This
flag alters that behaviour by running these tests as if they weren't marked
'xfail', i.e. their results are not ignored.
Less hacky way to make XPASS yellow markup. Make sure collect reports still have a "when" attribute.
xfail changed to XFAIL in the test report, for consistency with other outcomes which are all CAPS
