`test_non_comoving` fails

[kyleaoman]

I attempted to run the test suite locally and got the following failure:

show = False

[tberlok]

I have explained in some details why it fails here: https://github.com/tberlok/paicos/issues/59

The problem here is that pytest uses one single Python session to run all the tests when you do pytest at the base directory (this is why I introduced the make checks command). I have updated the error message that you get when loading several snapshots with different unit systems, so that the difficult to understand and expected astropy error message is explained.

You can check that all the tests work like this (one python session for each set of tests):

pytest tests/comoving
pytest tests/non-comoving
pytest tests/general
pytest tests/cuda-gpu

This should hopefully work.
