This is an alternative to #689, I won't merge it until making a decision on that.
I'm in the habit of putting tests inside packages so the tests get installed, but this clearly isn't a good fit for flit_core, which is frequently installed into temporary build environments, where no-one will ever run its test suite. This moves the tests out of the package folder, reducing the wheel size from 63 KB to 35 KB.
