Jeremy Stanley 09f16f6071 Drop auxiliary requirements files
Move the contents of test-requirements.txt and doc/requirements.txt
into pyproject.toml as project.optional-dependencies (a.k.a.
"extras"). The requirements.txt format is considered pip-specific
and nonstandard.

While we're at it, fine-tune these per test environment.

Contribution Overview
=====================
OpenDev's tools are hosted within the OpenDev collaboratory, and
development for them uses workflows described in the OpenDev
Infrastructure Manual:
http://docs.opendev.org/opendev/manual/developers.html
Defect reporting and task tracking takes place here:
https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/project/opendev/bindep
Developing bindep
=================
Either install `bindep` and run ``bindep test`` to check you have the needed
tools, or review ``bindep.txt`` by hand.
Running Tests
-------------
The testing system is based on a combination of nox and testr. The canonical
approach to running tests is to simply run the command `nox`. This will
create virtual environments, populate them with dependencies and run all of
the tests that OpenStack CI systems run. Behind the scenes, nox is running
`testr run --parallel`, but is set up such that you can supply any additional
testr arguments that are needed to nox. For example, you can run:
`nox -- --analyze-isolation` to cause nox to tell testr to add
--analyze-isolation to its argument list.
It is also possible to run the tests inside of a virtual environment
you have created, or it is possible that you have all of the dependencies
installed locally already. If you'd like to go this route, the requirements
are listed in pyproject.toml and the requirements for testing are in package
extras defined with project.optional-dependencies entries. Installing them
via pip, for instance, is simply::
pip install -e .[test-unit]
In you go this route, you can interact with the testr command directly.
Running `testr run` will run the entire test suite. `testr run --parallel`
will run it in parallel (this is the default incantation nox uses.) More
information about testr can be found at:
