tests: add as little code as possible in __init__.py
kallithea/tests/__init__.py contained quite a lot of code, including the test
base class TestController. This in itself may be considered bad practice.
Specifically, this poses a problem when using pytest 3.0+, in which asserts
in some files are not automatically rewritten to give improved assert
output. That problem can be fixed by explicitly registering such files for
assertion rewriting, but that register call should be executed _before_ said
files are imported. I.e. if the register call is in
kallithea/tests/__init__.py, assert calls in __init__.py itself can not be
rewritten.
Since the TestController base class does effectively contain asserts, and we
do not want to execute the register call from somewhere outside the
kallithea/tests directory, we need to move the TestController class to
another file (kallithea/tests/base.py) so we can have a register call in
__init__.py before loading base.py.
While not strictly necessary to fix the mentioned pytest problem, we take
the opportunity to fully clean __init__.py and move everything to
the new kallithea/tests/base.py. While doing so, unnecessary imports are
removed, and imports are ordered alphabetically. Explicit imports of symbols
from modules that were already imported as a whole, are removed in favor of
fully qualifying the references (e.g. tempfile._RandomNameSequence).
