Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed that
python-moto could not be built reproducibly.

This is because the tests generate a "moto_recording" file that then
gets installed directly under the /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages
directory (which, itself, I believe is a bug).

Patch attached that removes this file after running the testsuite.
