Now that headless mode is built into the main Ladybird executable, the
headless-browser's only purpose is to run tests. So let's move it to the
testing directory and rename it to test-web (a la test-js / test-wasm).
We currently create a separate headless-browser application to serve two
purposes:
1. Allow headless browsing to take a screenshot of a page or print its
layout tree / internal text.
2. Run the LibWeb test framework.
This patch migrates (1) to the main Ladybird executable. The --headless
flag enables this mode. This matches the behavior of other browsers, and
means we have one less executable to ship at distribution time.
We want to avoid creating too many AppKit / Qt facilities in headless
mode. So this involves some shuffling of application init to ensure we
don't create them until after we've parsed the command line arguments.
Namely, we avoid creating the NSApp in AppKit and QCoreApplication in
Qt. Doing so also requires that we don't create the application event
loop until we've parsed the command line as well, because the loop we
create depends on whether we're creating those UI facilities.
Changed the usage from `add_libweb_test.py test_name.html` to
`add_libweb_test.py test_name.html test_type` with no default,
and supports automatically generating input/output files in the
right directories for test types Screenshot, Text, Ref, and Layout.

The reason for this change is that CMake/vcpkg are unable to detect a
change to VCPKG_LIBRARY_LINKAGE. So when we switch to dynamic builds,
the switch would be non-functional, and every developer would have to
remove their Build and vcpkg cache directories manually. By changing
these directories, vcpkg is able to detect it must rebuild.
Bring together the docs on running tests, with the ones on writing them
which were hidden in Browser/Patterns.md
I've made a few adjustments while I was at it, because RunningTests.md
was a bit outdated and didn't mention `Meta/ladybird.sh test`. It's
possible they're still outdated and wrong, but I'm not familiar enough
with that area to know.
