Define the unittests using pytest

[kszucs]

Rationale for this change

pytest is more convenient for writing python tests and we should be able to reuse the testing suite define in pyarrow.

@kszucs FYI PR now needs to be rebased. I agree btw that pytest is really nice (and much nicer than unittest) 👍

[jorgecarleitao]

Do we need two requirements files? I think we only need one, for the tests?

[kszucs]

We used multiple requirements file in pyarrow for easier dependency composition. Though there are nicer ways to define multiple kinds of dependency. I don't have a strong preference, so I'm going to add pytest to the requiremets.txt file.
