ERROR: --reruns incompatible with --pdb in version 16.5 even if not setting --reruns

---

If pytest-rerunfailures is installed (version 16.5) then even if not using it via --reruns with pytest, I'll still get the error: --reruns incompatible with --pdb when using --pdb. To get around this, I have to either uninstall pytest-rerunfailures, or downgrade it to an earlier version if I want to use the --pdb functionality.

pytest SCRIPT.py --pdb is all you need to reproduce this.

@mdmintz A fix is up in #343. Could you try it out against your setup and confirm it resolves the problem for you?

pip install git+https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-rerunfailures.git@fix-342-pdb-regression

Yes, the proposed fix on the fix-342-pdb-regression branch resolves the issue.
