- Use a recursive descent parser so that it's easy to extend.
- Add `@args` to enable customizing command-line arguments
- Add `@should-start` to enable `nix repl` tests that error before
entering the REPL
- Make sure to read all stdout output before comparing. This catches
some extra output we were tossing out before!

This was achieved by running maintainers/buildtime_report.sh on the
build directory of a meson build, then asking "why the heck is json
eating our build times", and strategically moving the json using bits
out of widely included headers.
It turns out that putting literally any metrics whatsoever into the
build had immediate and predictable results.
Results are 1382.5s frontend time -> 1175.4s frontend time, back end
time approximately invariant.

This has some Flaws for sure (like, it is going to be a bit stretched to
use for repl characterization), but it is a start.

This is good in general (see how the other libraries also have long had
it, since 49fe9592a4) but in particular
needed to fix the NetBSD build.

Today, with the tests inside a `tests` intermingled with the
corresponding library's source code, we have a few problems:
- We have to be careful that wildcards don't end up with tests being
built as part of Nix proper, or test headers being installed as part
of Nix proper.
- Tests in libraries but not executables is not right:
- It means each executable runs the previous unit tests again, because
it needs the libraries.
- It doesn't work right on Windows, which doesn't want you to load a
DLL just for the side global variable . It could be made to work
with the dlopen equivalent, but that's gross!
This reorg solves these problems.
There is a remaining problem which is that sibbling headers (like
`hash.hh` the test header vs `hash.hh` the main `libnixutil` header) end
up shadowing each other. This PR doesn't solve that. That is left as
future work for a future PR.
