Allow marked tests to be skipped under Windows #44

Description

@webknjaz

Currently, if the test is marked with forked, this plugin tries to run it in a forked subprocess regardless of the current env. Also, adding a conditional skip marker does not help and manifests itself as pytest-dev/pytest#7327.

The following snippet still runs on Windows:

@pytest.mark.skipif(IS_WINDOWS, ...)
@pytest.mark.forked
def test():
    ...

The workaround that I currently use is:

@pytest.mark.skipif(IS_WINDOWS, ...)
def test():
    ...

if not IS_WINDOWS:
    test = pytest.mark.forked(test)

This could be addressed in a few ways:

  1. Actually respect skip markers.
  2. Skip any tests marked with forked when the env is not supported.
  3. Run these tests but w/o trying to sandbox them.

I think I like 1+2 most.
