async generators pytest fixtures

[sashgorokhov]

Python 3.6 have introduced new async generator entity:

async def foo():
    yield 'Foo'

When trying to create yield fixture in pytest (or a simple fixture but with async def) and decorate it with @pytest.mark.asyncio i receive a coroutine instead of fixture result.

Is there a way to make pytest.mark.asyncio recognize fixtures as coroutine functions or async generator functions and behave properly on them?

Well, coroutine fixtures don't work at all currently, so neither do coroutine yield fixtures. :)

There's some work in a branch (https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-asyncio/tree/feature/async_fixtures) but I'm not really satisfied with the API as of yet, so it's a work in progress.

This should work now!
