test: replace busted with local harness

Replace the busted-based Lua test runner with a repo-local harness.

The new harness runs spec files directly under `nvim -ll`, ships its own
reporter and lightweight `luassert` shim, and keeps the helper/preload
flow used by the functional and unit test suites.

Keep the file boundary model shallow and busted-like by restoring `_G`,
`package.loaded`, `package.preload`, `arg`, and the process environment
between files, without carrying extra reset APIs or custom assertion
machinery.

Update the build and test entrypoints to use the new runner, add
black-box coverage for the harness itself, and drop the bundled
busted/luacheck dependency path.
