Remove standalone pytest run_tests.py bundle
Newer pytest doesn't support generating stand alone testing
bundles. Python 3.9 generates errors running the current run_tests.py.
Changed doc to use pythonX -m pytest test/ and some light directions
on how to install pytest.
Thanks to jerrykan for recommendations on how to do the doc updates.
