Improve Python Path setup when running unit tests.

Django Evolution

Reviewers

This makes three changes designed to help ensure the right environment
is in use when running unit tests:

  1. conftest.py now sets the Python Path before importing django or
    pytest, helping avoid anything important from loading before we
    have the correct path.

  2. pytest is now told to use the current directory as the default
    Python Path.

  3. To enable that, we now depend on pytest~=7.1.2 on Python 3.

Unit tests pass.
