This adds and documents a workaround for
pypa#4909. It feels a bit weird to
pretend to be CI just to run the test suite, though. Maybe we can do
something about that later.
I ran into a lot of trouble trying to get the tests to run when working
on pypa#4908, and that was largely
because the instructions in this CONTRIBUTING.md file seem to have
rotted.
1. The bit about "can be run very simply" is bogus. It's
unfortunately not that simple right now.
2. `make test` (the docker approach) fails for me with this error:
```bash
$ make test
docker-compose up

The docker image it relies upon
(https://hub.docker.com/r/kennethreitz/pipenv-tests) hasn't been
updated in 4 years, so I assume it's just not something people use
anymore?
3. Relatedly, there was a `Dockerfile` at the root of this repo that
appears to be unused. Let me know if it's used somewhere I'm not
realizing, I can add it back!
4. https://kennethreitz.org/essays/be-cordial-or-be-on-your-way seems to
be a broken link now. I found
https://kennethreitz.org/essays/2013/01/27/be-cordial-or-be-on-your-way
on Google.
5. `./run-tests.sh` doesn't work for me. It's failing for the same
reason described by @ncoghlan here:
pypa/pip#7953 (comment). He
said something about a `PIPENV_BOOTSTRAP` environment variable, but I
can't find any information about that.
