TST: Refactor sql test inheritance

Pytest wouldn't discover the tests in the same way as nose when

1. The base class inherits from `TestCase`, and
2. The base class doesn't start with `Test` (e.g. PandasSQLTest)
3. The parent class with test methods doesn't start with `Test` (
  e.g. _TestSQLAPI)

We solved this by moving the class inheriting from `TestCase` down a
level from `PandasSQLTest` to the many `TestSQL*` methods.
