The tests relied on Python2 relative import semantics. Python3 changed
import semantics to always search sys.path by default. To import using a
relative path it must have a leading dot.
Forward compatible with newer Pythons.
Works towards the goal of moving tests outside of the installed package.

There is no need to import testutils.unittest instead of simply
unittest. They are simple aliases. Use system unittest to be more
regular, consistent as well as idiomatic with the wider Python
community.
The syntax "except Exception, exc:" is deprecated. All Python versions
supported by psycopg2 support the newer, modern syntax. Forward
compatible with future Python versions.
