[IMP] test discovery, documentation, deprecation warnings
* document and warn that checks and fast_suite in tests sub-packages are
deprecated and have no effect
* avoid iterating all currently loaded modules when looking for test
modules in a tests sub-package
* replace use of __import__ by importlib
Fixes #3152
