* drop empty setup.py which "breaks" on incomplete build envs
* use the build package to build the dist
* update the gh workflow to use it
fixup noise from pre-commit
* Get `-nauto` default from `PYTEST_XDIST_AUTO_NUM_WORKERS`
A few additional tests for existing functionality are added too.
And the ``-n logical`` option is documented.

* Restore old initial batch distribution logic in LoadScheduling
pytest orders tests for optimal sequential execution - i. e. avoiding
unnecessary setup and teardown of fixtures. So executing tests in consecutive
chunks is important for optimal performance.
Commit 09d79ace35 optimized test distribution for
the corner case, when the number of tests is less than 2 * number of nodes.
At the same time, it made initial test distribution worse for all other cases.
If some tests use some fixture, and these tests fit into the initial batch,
the fixture will be created min(n_tests, n_workers) times, no matter how many
other tests there are. With the old algorithm (before
09d79ace35), if there are enough tests not using
the fixture, the fixture was created only once.
So restore the old behavior for typical cases where the number of tests is
much greater than the number of workers (or, strictly speaking, when there
are at least 2 tests for every node).
In my test suite, where fixtures create Docker containers, this change reduces
total run time by 10-15%.
This is a partial revert of commit 09d79ace35

This test started to fail in the 'py38-pytestmain' environment, the
cause being PytestRemovedIn7Warning being raised by the conftest file
of the test itself. Ignoring it is fine, the purpose of the test is to ensure
the hook is not called by pytest-xdist.
- Use pytest>=6.2 features (same as install_requires).
When we can require >=7, can fix some more typing omissions and
version checks.
- Replace testdir with pytester
- Replace py.test with pytest
- Replace tmpdir with tmp_path
- Remove (almost) all other uses of py
- Add some type annotations (not checked yet)
Ref #722.
`--debug` now receives an optional file, so the way the test
was calling pytest made it seem like it was passing the python file
file as the debug file.
The test was failing because *other* warnings were being triggered on the
master node. This makes the test more reliable by checking only that
the warning from the worker node is not emitted.
Fix#601
This makes using psutil optional and opens up the possibility of customization
through the pytest_xdist_auto_num_workers hook, making things like #477 possible.
Fix#585
Fix test_config_initialization to be correctly skipped on pytest<5,
by explicitly checking pytest version (idea copied from
test_looponfail_removed_test). The current conditions are insufficient
-- the outer check wrongly assumes pytest>=5 will always be used
on Python 3 (which is not true if you need the same version to support
both Python 2 and Python 3), and the inner condition apparently
wrongly assuming that invocation_params attribute is not present
in pytest-4.
