Move io and lib related tests into io/ and lib/. Our test dictionaries not must have a 'source' key with an array created with files(). This ensures we use always correct paths regardless of the actual directory we are currently in. Until https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/8608 is not solved we have to separately specify the tests name in a 'name' key.

The test fixture will automatically assume that the test was successful if emperTest() returns.

Resetting the Future on the last iteration may cause the assert that the Future was never awaited to trigger (which is in the Future's destructor).

Empers IO design is based on a proactor pattern where each worker can issue IO requests through its exclusive IoContext object which wraps an io_uring instance. IO completions are reaped at 4 places: 1. After a submit to collect inline completions 2. Before dispatching a new Fiber 3. When no new IO can be submitted because the completion queue is full 4. And by a global completer thread which gets notified about completions on worker IoContexts through registered eventfds All IO requests are modeled as Future objects which can be either instantiated and submitted manually, retrieved by POSIX-like non-blocking or implicitly used by posix-like blocking functions. User facing API is exported in the following headers: * emper/io.hpp (POSIX-like) * emper.h (POSIX-like) * emper/io/Future.hpp Catching short write/reads/sends and resubmitting the request without unblocking the Fiber is supported. Using AlarmFuture objects Fibers have a emper-native way to sleep for a given time. IO request timeouts with TimeoutWrapper class. Request Cancellation is supported with Future::cancel() or the CancelWrapper() Future class. A proactor design demands that buffers are committed to the kernel as long as the request is active. To guaranty memory safety Futures get canceled in their Destructor which will only return after the committed memory is free to use. Linking Futures to chains is supported using the Future::SetDependency() method. Future are submitted when their last Future gets submitted. A linked Request will start if the previous has finished. Error or partial completions will cancel the not started tail of a chain. TODO: Handle possible situations where the CQ of the global completer is full and no more sqe can be submitted to the SQ.
