pytest_collection_modifyitems in subdir conftest recieves all tests

Given the following test setup:

tests
| - a
    | - __init__.py
    | - conftest.py
    | - test_foo.py  
| - __init__.py
| - test_bar.py

# a/conftest.py
def pytest_collection_modifyitems(items):
    for item in items:
        print(item.name)

# a/test_foo.py
def test_foo():
    pass

# test_bar.py
def test_bar():
    pass

Based on the docs, I wouldn’t expect to see “test_bar” be printed, but I do.

@The-Compiler @nimeshvashistha My bad 😅 September has been a very busy month.

Put me on the PR when it’s ready. I haven’t had much runtime with the Python documentation ecosystem and would love a reason to get familiar 😄

@nimeshvashistha Since @thejcannon didn’t answer for a couple of weeks it seems fine to take this - as discussed, only the doc addition without any behavior/code changes for now. Thanks!

alright, thanks!
