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.
Pytest document currently does not index the top-level package name
`pytest`, which causes some trouble when building documentation that
cross-refers to the pytest package via ``:mod:`pytest` ``.
In https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/reference.html#testdir, it is
suggested:
> New code should avoid using testdir in favor of pytester.
Multiple spots in the documents still use testdir and they can be quite
confusing (especially the plugin writing guide).

The type cannot be constructed directly, but is exported for use in type
annotations, since it is reachable through existing public API.
This also documents `from_call` as public, because at least
pytest-forked uses it, so we must treat it as public already anyway.
* Custom multiple marker execution order
https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/8020 issue stated that ordering of multiple custom markers is from inside - out. I have added example for the same in the documentation. Please let me know for further changes / concerns.

In order to allow users to type annotate fixtures they request, the
types need to be imported from the `pytest` namespace. They are/were
always available to import from the `_pytest` namespace, but that is
not guaranteed to be stable.
These types are only exported for the purpose of typing. Specifically,
the following are *not* public:
- Construction (`__init__`)
- Subclassing
- staticmethods and classmethods
We try to combat them being used anyway by:
- Marking the classes as `@final` when possible (already done).
- Not documenting private stuff in the API Reference.
- Using `_`-prefixed names or marking as `:meta private:` for private
stuff.
- Adding a keyword-only `_ispytest=False` to private constructors,
warning if False, and changing pytest itself to pass True. In the
future it will (hopefully) become a hard error.
Hopefully that will be enough.
We want to export `pytest.MonkeyPatch` for the purpose of
type-annotating the `monkeypatch` fixture. For other fixtures we export
in this way, we also make direct construction of them (e.g.
`MonkeyPatch()`) private. But unlike the others, `MonkeyPatch` is also
widely used directly already, mostly because the `monkeypatch` fixture
only works in `function` scope (issue #363), but also in other cases. So
making it private will be annoying and we don't offer a decent
replacement yet.
So, let's just make direct construction public & documented.
