This pull requests updates the Python tester to add four new
pytestcustom markers:markus_tag(for adding tags to a submission)markus_annotation(for adding annotations to a submission)markus_overall_comment(for adding overall comments to a submission)markus_message(for displaying messages in the test output)The first two build on #582 and MarkUsProject/Markus#7387. The third takes advantage of existing autotester functionality (which is currently only used by the PyTA tester).
The fourth modifies the current Python tester behaviour: currently, the only test output shown to students is error messages. The new marker allows the instructor to provide custom messages that are displayed to student regardless of test status; these can be used to provide feedback even when a test passes, or to provide additional information when a test fails.
