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.
As follow-up from the preceding refactorings,
it is now possible to drastically simplify several type signatures.
Generally speaking, iterator pipelines can now pass-through the result type,
and thus it is no longer necessary to handle this result type explicitly
In the case of `IterStateWrapper`, the result type parameter was retained,
but moved to the second position and defaulted; sometimes it can be relevant
to force a specific type; this is especially useful when defining an
`iterator` and a `const_iterator` based on the same »state-core«
For sake of completeness, since the `IterExplorer` supports building extended
search- and evaluation patterns, a tuple-zipping adapter can be expected
to handle these extended usages transparently.
While the idea is simple, making this actually happen had several ramifications
and required to introduce additional flexibility within the adaptor-framework
to cope better with those cases were some iterator must return a value, not a ref.
In the end, this could be solved with a bit of metaprogramming based on `std::common_type`
...and indeed, this is all quite nasty stuff — in hindsight, my initial intuition
to shy away from this topic was spot-on....
