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.
Since C++17 we can use the std::filesystem instead (and we ''do use it'' indeed)
- relocate the `/lib/file.hpp` header
- adapt the self-discovery of the executable to using std::filesystem
