Auto-register factories as pytest fixtures

[mikelane]

It would be super handy to have some method that would easily create a fixture out of a factory. For example:

class SomeLongNamedModel(BaseModel):
    id: UUID


@register_fixture   # Or some better name?
class SomeLongNamedModelFactory(ModelFactory):
    """Factory to create SomeLongNameModel instances
    
    Use this factory to generate SomeLongNameModels filled with random data
    """
    __model__ = SomeLongNamedModel

And then

$ pytest --fixtures

# other output...
some_long_named_model_factory
    Factory to create SomeLongNameModel instances
    
    Use this factory to generate SomeLongNameModels filled with random data

This is following the model of pytest-factoryboy which automatically converts the PascalCase class names to be the snake_case equivalent for the fixtures.

Sure, this is a good suggestion. If you'd like to add this it would be a welcome addition.

I think I could try to implenment this recently.
