ensure compat properties trigger DeprecationWarnings

[RonnyPfannschmidt]

https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/blob/master/_pytest/main.py#L191

should do a warnings.warn so we can safely remove later on

Is there some policy on adding these warnings (ala Django's deprecation docs)?

Maybe not important on this one in particular ...

Our policy is written here: http://doc.pytest.org/en/latest/backwards-compatibility.html

It is very recent though so we are still maturing it.

Oh, nice one, thanks for passing that link @nicoddemus!
