Feature: support inspection of test.pypi.org packages

[miketheman]

As a way to examine packages that have been uploaded to test.pypi.org as well.

Some folks may only upload their packages to the test server, and ask users to install from test.pypi.org via chats with specific pip commands.

Currently inspector will show a 404 for any package on test.pypi.org as it only supports retrieval from the production index.

inspector/inspector/main.py

Line 57 in cfd7b09

resp = requests.get(f"https://pypi.org/pypi/{project_name}/json")

I’m not sure if this should manifest as a separate test-inspector instance and differ via config, or if there’s another way we should support test retrieval like a specific header/query string.

I think a separate test-inspector instance would be clearest, something like https://test.inspector.pypi.io/

Alternatively - support configuration of several "backend" servers.
Idea: such configuration can be dynamic, i.e. for support of GitLab-alike servers where each project has it's own PyPI URL.

I was just about to file the same request.. Found that somebody uploaded a few @aio-libs projects to TestPyPI and it'd be helpful to be able to actually look inside on the web.
