TST: any_* fixtures are confusingly named

[jreback]

the naming on the any_* fixtures in pandas/conftest.py is pretty confusing

• any_int_dtype (numpy only)
• any_int_nullable_dtype (EA only)
• any_numeric_dtype both numpy & EA
• any_real_dtype both numpy int & float
• sint_dtype signed numpy ints

for example

so we need dtypes that are numpy_only and EA only and numpy + EA both for ints & floats

would propose something like

any_int_numpy_dtype
any_int_ea_dtype
any_int_dtype -> both numpy + ea

same for float

then

any_numeric_nump_dtype
any_numeric_ea_dtype

for float + int

which means we rename
sint_dtype -> any_signed_int_numpy_dtype

I think this would require a PR to organize, a PR to create new names & fix everything.

Proposed naming seems to make sense

(note I removed the 1.2 milestone, since I don't think this is in any way important for the release? So we can use the milestone to track release critical issues)

@jreback I would love to work on this issue. If you agree then I will start working on it.

I apologize, I cannot deal with this problem now.

Hey @jreback I want to take this issue, but being it my very first contribution, how to check the what datatype does the variable takes, like is it numpy or ea or both. Sorry for this silly question
