When you don't get enough information with a test running on a CI, it's quite
frustrating, for various reasons:
- It's more likely to be a flaky test, so you might not be able to reproduce
the failure.
- Passing -vv is quite bothersome (creating a temporary commit and reverting
it)
For those reasons, if something goes wrong on CI, it's good to have as much
information as possible.
Sometimes the repr of an object can contain the "\n{" sequence which is
used as a formatting language, so they are escaped to "\\n{". But the
collapse-false code needs to look for the real "\n{" token instead of
simply "{" as otherwise it may get unbalanced braces from the object's
repr (sometimes caused by the collapsing of long reprs by saferepr).
Fixes issue #731.

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.

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.
User provided messages, or any valid expression given as second
argument to the assert statement, are now shown in addition to the
py.test introspection details. Formerly any user provided message
would entirely replace the introspection details.
Fixes issue549.
The assertion formatting mini-language depends on newlines being
escaped. Unfortunately if the repr of an object contained
newlines the rewriting module did not escape those, which is now
fixed.
Fixes issue453.
The result from the pytest_assertrepr_compare hook should not include
any newlines since that will confuse the mini-formatting language used
by assertion.util.format_explanation. So simply escape the included
newlines, this way hook writers do not have to worry about this at
all.
Fixes issue 453.
