This resolves a long-standing issue:
we could not use proper include paths for test-helper code that was defined alongside the tests.
Since some test-helper code must now be relocated into the »Vault«-Layer,
I took the opportunity to finally resolve this annoyance. The solution is two-fold
* introduce a dedicated test-support library
* remove the quirks that were necessary to support some plain-C tests
Together, this allows to raise the include-directory by one level,
and then to adjust all folder names so that they match the namespace
This is something I wanted to clean-up since a very long time indeed,
but always postponed it, since it requires a lot of nasty clean-up and disentangling....
Several parts had been stashed away into `src/lib/test`, which are not really related:
* the testrunner and testsuite builder
* generic helper utilities
* specialised test-support facilities, e.g. the EventLog
This changeset introduces a new top-level test folder and a namespace `::test`
Code from this folder is linked into a shared library `libtestsupport.so`,
which resides in the linkage hierarchy between »Vessel« and »Vault«,
yet is no longer part of the Lumiera application and only linked into the test-suite.
So this turned out to be much more challenging than expected,
due to the fact that, with this design, typing information is
only available at compile-time. The key trick was to use a
''double-dispatch'' based on a generic lambda. In the end,
this could be rounded out to be self-contained library helper,
which is even fully copyable and assignable and properly
invokes all payload constructors and destructors.
The flip side is that such a design is obviously very flexible
and direct regarding the parser model-bindings, and it should
be fairly well optimisable, since the structure is entirely
static and without any virtual dispatch.
Proper handling of payload lifecycle was verified using
a tracking test object with checksum.
* the implementation of this ''Sum Type'' got quite technical and complicated;
thus better to be extracted as separate library component
* use this as base for the `AltModel`
* make a usage sketch, invoking only the model interactions required
