Missing dependency empty

[objarni]

Get error when using latest released approvaltests.python version, guessing empty_files module is a new dependency not included in requirements.txt?

    import empty_files
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'empty_files'

To avoid this kind of issue resurfacing, maybe an automated "install and run a hello world approval test" integration test could be formulated with GitHub actions? Would love to see how such a thing could be formulated 🎉

I've observed some 'smoke test issues' w.r.t ApprovalTests.Python lately, this issue being one of them.

And I had a little spare time to hack around for fun! So I put together a script to test whether a "hello world" test works with a specific version of the library.

Thank you for the suggestion @objarni ! We've added some automation to test the current release before and after each mob to prevent this happening in the future
