REFACTOR: Change pytests to use temp tables (starting with #)

[bewithgaurav]

Summary

This pull request updates the test cases to use temporary tables (prefixed with #) instead of permanent tables for improved isolation and to prevent unintended side effects during test execution. The changes span across multiple test functions in the tests/test_003_connection.py and tests/test_004_cursor.py files.

Transition to Temporary Tables

• Updated all test cases in tests/test_003_connection.py to use temporary tables (e.g., #pytest_test_autocommit, #pytest_test_commit, #pytest_test_rollback) instead of permanent tables. This includes changes in table creation, data insertion, selection, and cleanup steps. [1] [2]

• Modified the TEST_TABLE definition in tests/test_004_cursor.py to create a temporary table #pytest_all_data_types instead of a permanent one.

• Updated various test cases in tests/test_004_cursor.py (e.g., test_insert_id_column, test_insert_bit_column, test_insert_nvarchar_column, test_insert_date_column, test_insert_real_column) to use temporary tables (#pytest_single_column) for creating, inserting, and querying data. This ensures better test isolation and cleanup. [1] [2]
