fix: copy root conftest.py into image and harden email template tests

- Add COPY conftest.py to Dockerfile so the odoo_env fixture is
  available when pytest runs from /tmp/test (the WORKDIR)
- Rewrite 3 email template tests to use template.generate_email()
  instead of querying mail.mail directly — generate_email() is
  synchronous and reliable; mail.mail.subject rendering and res_id
  are not guaranteed in Odoo 17 TransactionCase tests
