[New-bugs-announce] [issue24629] unittest.main shadows unittest.main module

[Robert Collins]

New submission from Robert Collins:

this is a bad practice - it interferes with test discovery and with the use of mock (see https://github.com/testing-cabal/mock/issues/250).

We could move main.py to mainmod.py or something
