MNT: Stop using deprecated astropy.tests functions

[pllim]

This pull request is to remove soon to be deprecated code; also see astropy/astropy#12633 . Also stop using distutils and officially set minversion for astropy.

[pllim]

One could also turn all unhandled warnings into exceptions for pytest in setup.cfg but that is out of scope here.

I think failures are addressed in #166

Merged that. Would you please rebase this PR to check that the tests pass?

[pllim]

I rebased but I don't understand why Azure won't kick off.

This check was skipped

No pipeline branch filters matched the modified branch.

[lpsinger]

I don't understand either. Do you recall, were all of the tests except for the Python 3.6 ones passing? If so, then I'm happy to merge.

[pllim]

Yes, I think so. Well, the linux wheel also failed but I think that is because of Python 3.6 as well.

p.s. Maybe should just ditch Azure and use Actions.

The latest package template does that. Would be good to just update from the template.

[pllim]

Re: template -- Depends. I see that someone set up wheels stuff on your Azure pipeline. So you can start with template but that might not be enough.
