The `tmp_path` fixture was introduced in Pytest 3.9. Include an explicit definition of that fixture for compatibility with those older Pytest versions. When we're ready to drop support, we can just remove the fixture.

tmp_pathfixture was introduced in Pytest 3.9. Include an explicit definition of that fixture for compatibility with those older Pytest versions. When we're ready to drop support, we can just remove the fixture.We could test this in GitHub Actions but it would be pretty contrived. I think it would be OK to carry this as a compatibility extension without explicitly testing it in CI, but I'm open to hearing differing opinions.
