fix compatibility for pytest 8

[haifeng-jin]

What does this PR do?

The test test_seed_stays_same_with_multiple_seed_everything_calls is only compatible with pytest==7, but not pytest==8 due to its passing None to pytest.warns(), which is deprecated.

This PR fixes the test by making it compatible with both pytest 7 & 8.

more context:
We (Google) uses a monorepo that enforces the pytest version to be 8 for now.
We want to be able to run the unit tests instead of just importing the code.
So, we would like to make this compatibility fix.

this seems like just a filter, but the original code validates that no warning was raised...

[haifeng-jin]

Hi Borda,

According to the doc, the simplefilter("error") would turn any warning into an error.

So, when a warning occurs, the test would error out.

looks good to me, good use of catch_warnings to reset behavior back to default outside the context manager
