[GitHub] libcloud pull request: Use libcloud unittest

Use libcloud unittest

This changeset includes two patches:

1. Modify Dimension Data tests again to use `libcloud.test.unittest` which 
contains logic for deciding the appropriate package version that works across 
Python versions. This allows us to use assertRaises as a context manager which 
makes the test cleaner.

2. Add an entry in `docs/development.rst` to recommend using 
`libcloud.test.unittest`. This is based on a suggestion from @Kami in PR #674.

You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running:

$ git pull https://github.com/relaxdiego/libcloud use_libcloud_unittest

Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at:

Multiple improvements to the Dimension Data tests

- Use libcloud.test.unittest instead of the system unittest to ensure
  that newer unittest features are available in older version of Python

- Update all other Dimension Data test cases to use self.assertRaises
  instead of try...except blocks so that, should a regression happen,
  the tests will provide a more helpful message than 'False is not True'
