Unexpected keyword argument 'path' from plugins

See original GitHub issue

While troubleshooting #8332, I stumbled onto a new error, a TypeError that occurs when using pytest-black against the current main HEAD (32ad70d), easily reproducible with an empty test file and pip-run:

Sounds like I definitely should sort out the signature of the create call and issue a warning

Hey @jaraco,

I’m making a quick guess as I don’t have time to delve deep into the code, but perhaps from_parent in pytest_checkdocs/__init__.py:52 needs to receive **kw and pass that on to super()?
