Use pytest conftest.py and drop pytest.ini

Let's replace some ugly hacks with proper pytest conftest.py hooks.
Test initialization of ipalib.api is now handled in
pytest_cmdline_main(). Pytest plugins, markers and ignores are also
moved into conftest.py. Additional guards make it possible to run tests
without ipaserver installed.

I added confcutdir to ensure that pytest does not leave our project
space. Pytest used pytest.ini or setup.py before but pytest.ini is gone.
