DateAxisItem: AxisItem unlinking tests and doc fixed (#1179)

* Added test_AxisItem by @mliberty1

As found in https://github.com/pyqtgraph/pyqtgraph/pull/917

* test_AxisItem: Fit to current implementation

* DateAxisItem: Fix documentation to zoomLevels

zoomLevels is not intended to be set by the user (see discussion in converstation from
https://github.com/pyqtgraph/pyqtgraph/pull/1154/files#diff-aefdb23660d0963df0dff3a116baded8
). Also, `zoomLevelWidths` does currently not exist.
This commit adapts the documentation to reflect that.

* DateAxisItem: Do not publish ZoomLevel

* DateAxisItem testing: Removed unnecessary monkeypatch fixture
