This udpates all the remaining tests to the new test suite code and
comment styles started in #898.  For the most part, the test coverage
here is unchanged, with a few minor exceptions as noted below.

- test_constants_and_functions: this adds more overload tests with
  overloads with different number of arguments for more comprehensive
  overload_cast testing.  The test style conversion broke the overload
  tests under MSVC 2015, prompting the additional tests while looking
  for a workaround.

- test_eigen: this dropped the unused functions `get_cm_corners` and
  `get_cm_corners_const`--these same tests were duplicates of the same
  things provided (and used) via ReturnTester methods.

- test_opaque_types: this test had a hidden dependence on ExampleMandA
  which is now fixed by using the global UserType which suffices for the
  relevant test.

- test_methods_and_attributes: this required some additions to UserType
  to make it usable as a replacement for the test's previous SimpleType:
  UserType gained a value mutator, and the `value` property is not
  mutable (it was previously readonly).  Some overload tests were also
  added to better test overload_cast (as described above).

- test_numpy_array: removed the untemplated mutate_data/mutate_data_t:
  the templated versions with an empty parameter pack expand to the same
  thing.

- test_stl: this was already mostly in the new style; this just tweaks
  things a bit, localizing a class, and adding some missing
  `// test_whatever` comments.

- test_virtual_functions: like `test_stl`, this was mostly in the new
  test style already, but needed some `// test_whatever` comments.
  This commit also moves the inherited virtual example code to the end
  of the file, after the main set of tests (since it is less important
  than the other tests, and rather length); it also got renamed to
  `test_inherited_virtuals` (from `test_inheriting_repeat`) because it
  tests both inherited virtual approaches, not just the repeat approach.

This updates the std::tuple, std::pair and `stl.h` type casters to
forward their contained value according to whether the container being
cast is an lvalue or rvalue reference.  This fixes an issue where
subcaster casts were always called with a const lvalue which meant
nested type casters didn't have the desired `cast()` overload invoked.
For example, this caused Eigen values in a tuple to end up with a
readonly flag (issue #935) and made it impossible to return a container
of move-only types (issue #853).

This fixes both issues by adding templated universal reference `cast()`
methods to the various container types that forward container elements
according to the container reference type.

With this change both C++ and Python write to sys.stdout which resolves
the capture issues noted in #351. Therefore, the related workarounds are
removed.

A Python function can be called with the syntax:
```python
foo(a1, a2, *args, ka=1, kb=2, **kwargs)
```
This commit adds support for the equivalent syntax in C++:
```c++
foo(a1, a2, *args, "ka"_a=1, "kb"_a=2, **kwargs)
```

In addition, generalized unpacking is implemented, as per PEP 448,
which allows calls with multiple * and ** unpacking:
```python
bar(*args1, 99, *args2, 101, **kwargs1, kz=200, **kwargs2)
```
and
```c++
bar(*args1, 99, *args2, 101, **kwargs1, "kz"_a=200, **kwargs2)
```

Adding or removing tests is a little bit cumbersome currently: the test
needs to be added to CMakeLists.txt, the init function needs to be
predeclared in pybind11_tests.cpp, then called in the plugin
initialization.  While this isn't a big deal for tests that are being
committed, it's more of a hassle when working on some new feature or
test code for which I temporarily only care about building and linking
the test being worked on rather than the entire test suite.

This commit changes tests to self-register their initialization by
having each test initialize a local object (which stores the
initialization function in a static variable).  This makes changing the
set of tests being build easy: one only needs to add or comment out
test names in tests/CMakeLists.txt.

A couple other minor changes that go along with this:

- test_eigen.cpp is now included in the test list, then removed if eigen
  isn't available.  This lets you disable the eigen tests by commenting
  it out, just like all the other tests, but keeps the build working
  without eigen eigen isn't available.  (Also, if it's commented out, we
  don't even bother looking for and reporting the building with/without
  eigen status message).

- pytest is now invoked with all the built test names (with .cpp changed
  to .py) so that it doesn't try to run tests that weren't built.

Use simple asserts and pytest's powerful introspection to make testing
simpler. This merges the old .py/.ref file pairs into simple .py files
where the expected values are right next to the code being tested.

This commit does not touch the C++ part of the code and replicates the
Python tests exactly like the old .ref-file-based approach.
