The legacy system test framework uses pytest to execute some tests.
Since it'd be quite difficult to convince pytest to decide whether to
include conftest.py (or which ones to include when launching from
subdir), it makes more sense to have a shared conftest.py which is used
by both the legacy test runner invocations of pytest and the new pytest
system test runner. It is ugly, but once we drop support for the legacy
runner, we'll get rid of it.
Properly scope the *port fixtures in order to ensure they'll work as
expected with the new pytest runner. Instead of using "session" (which
means the fixture is only evaluated once for the entire execution of
pytest), use "module" scope, which is evaluated separately for each
module. The legacy runner invoked pytest for each system test
separately, while the new pytest runner is invoked once for all system
tests -- therefore it requires the more fine-grained "module" scope to
for the fixtures to work properly.
Remove python shebang, as conftest.py isn't supposed to be an executable
script.
