TST: raise errors for dev versions and warnings for releases on test runs.
This approach is less error prone than switching from "develop" to "release" in maintenance branches by hand. See gh-6461 for details.

-Handle test warnings
---------------------
-The default behavior of the test suite in the master branch is to report errors
-for DeprecationWarnings and RuntimeWarnings that are issued. For a released
-version this is not desired. Therefore any known warnings should be solved or
-explicitly silenced before making the release branch, then when the branch is
-made, the default behavior should be switched to not raise errors. This is
-done in the constructor of the NoseTester class in numpy/testing/nosetester.py,
-by replacing ``raise_warnings="develop"`` with ``raise_warnings="release"``.
