tests: add global test_context_fixture
Move the existing app_test_context_fixture from test_pullrequests.py to
conftest.py to make it available to all test modules.
It is useful in two cases:
1. there is test setup code (xUnit style) that needs to execute in the same
test context as the actual test.
2. even without test setup code, an entire test needs to be executed in a
test context. In this case, the fixture just reduces code complexity by not
requiring changes in the test code (compared to standard 'with
test_context').
It is possible to apply this (or any) fixture to an entire test class using
the class decorator
@pytest.mark.usefixtures("...")
This is similar to 'autouse=True' but can be used even if the fixture is
defined elsewhere.

Database schema changes
=======================
Kallithea uses Alembic for :ref:`database migrations <upgrade_db>`
(upgrades and downgrades).
If you are developing a Kallithea feature that requires database schema
changes, you should make a matching Alembic database migration script:
1. :ref:`Create a Kallithea configuration and database <setup>` for testing
the migration script, or use existing ``development.ini`` setup.
Ensure that this database is up to date with the latest database
schema *before* the changes you're currently developing. (Do not
create the database while your new schema changes are applied.)
2. Create a separate throwaway configuration for iterating on the actual
database changes::
gearbox make-config temp.ini
Edit the file to change database settings. SQLite is typically fine,
but make sure to change the path to e.g. ``temp.db``, to avoid
clobbering any existing database file.
3. Make your code changes (including database schema changes in ``db.py``).
4. After every database schema change, recreate the throwaway database
to test the changes::
rm temp.db
gearbox setup-db -c temp.ini --repos=/var/repos --user=doe --email doe@example.com --password=123456 --no-public-access --force-yes
gearbox repo-scan -c temp.ini
5. Once satisfied with the schema changes, auto-generate a draft Alembic
script using the development database that has *not* been upgraded.
(The generated script will upgrade the database to match the code.)
::
alembic -c development.ini revision -m "area: add cool feature" --autogenerate
6. Edit the script to clean it up and fix any problems.
Note that for changes that simply add columns, it may be appropriate
to not remove them in the downgrade script (and instead do nothing),
to avoid the loss of data. Unknown columns will simply be ignored by
Kallithea versions predating your changes.
7. Run ``alembic -c development.ini upgrade head`` to apply changes to
the (non-throwaway) database, and test the upgrade script. Also test
downgrades.
The included ``development.ini`` has full SQL logging enabled. If
you're using another configuration file, you may want to enable it
by setting ``level = DEBUG`` in section ``[handler_console_sql]``.
The Alembic migration script should be committed in the same revision as
the database schema (``db.py``) changes.
See the `Alembic documentation`__ for more information, in particular
the tutorial and the section about auto-generating migration scripts.

Troubleshooting
---------------
* If ``alembic --autogenerate`` responds "Target database is not up to
date", you need to either first use Alembic to upgrade the database
to the most recent version (before your changes), or recreate the
database from scratch (without your schema changes applied).
