[issue23882] unittest discovery doesn't detect namespace packages when given no parameters

[Robert Collins]

Robert Collins added the comment:

reviewed in rietvald, but here too just in case.

The hunk that saves/restores _top_level_dir feels wrong to me - and not part of this bug, please remove it.

The rest of the patch is fine today.

But it also needs to add two specifically namespace tests: concretely we need the following cases covered:


a) namespace subdir/namespace subdir/test_foo.py gets loaded
b) namespace subdir/test_foo.py with another instance of the namespace subdir on sys.path also containing e.g. test_bar.py, test_bar.py is not loaded.
