New issue 450: pytest --fixtures console output should not include text formatted as rst source
https://bitbucket.org/hpk42/pytest/issue/450/pytest-fixtures-console-output-should-not

Jurko Gospodnetić:

When running pytest --fixtures, console output includes text formatted as *rst* source such as:

```
#!text
capsys
    enables capturing of writes to sys.stdout/sys.stderr and makes
    captured output available via ``capsys.readouterr()`` method calls
    which return a ``(out, err)`` tuple.
```

or:

```
#!text
tmpdir
    return a temporary directory path object
    which is unique to each test function invocation,
    created as a sub directory of the base temporary
    directory.  The returned object is a `py.path.local`_
    path object.
```

Such *rst* markup should be removed.

I noticed this as something 'really out of place' in the pytest PDF documentation in the '2.1.5 Builtin fixtures/function arguments' section where this output is quoted verbatim.
