Updated package infrastructure #48

As for other packages such as pytest-openfiles, this:

Switches to setuptools_scm for version management
Adds a tox configuration
Removes AppVeyor
Updates the Travis configuration (in fact this is a straight copy/paste from pytest-openfiles, we might be able to use the exact same file for all pytest plugings)

Thanks! Not sure why Appveyor tried to run. It shouldn't have given the appveyor.yml is no more.

p.s. Not sure how I feel about mixing up the OS like that in the matrix. I have a habit of doing the matrix in Linux and only test the other ones with latest stable, but that's a personal style.

That's what I used to do but then I realized the matrix could be made smaller in this way and it really shouldn't matter. I think I was also worried that we introduce a bias that we never check non-linux with older versions of packages. But maybe we could discuss and whatever we decide we can apply uniformly across all pytest plugins?

I am more worries that we'll end up dealing with failures that are not our fault but OS specific, especially for Windows. But I heard Macs are moving to ARM chips too (?), so who knows.
