tests : consolidate context state tests into test-llama-context (#30023)

• tests : consolidate the context state tests into test-llama-context

test-save-load-state, test-recurrent-state-rollback and
test-state-restore-fragmented check the same object from three places:
the KV cache and the recurrent state of a llama_context, saved, loaded,
copied, rolled back. Each had its own main, its own loop over the
models, its own copy of the token and the comparison helpers, and a run
of all three loaded the same models several times.

They are one binary now, and the case is the unit of the test:

tests/llama-context/test-case.h the interface a case implements
tests/llama-context/cases-kv.cpp the cases of the KV cache
tests/llama-context/cases-rs.cpp the cases of the recurrent state
tests/llama-context/test-util.cpp tokens, generation, comparison
tests/llama-context/test-runner.cpp the models of a case, on threads
tests/llama-context/test-log.cpp the log file of a model

A run is a table: a row per model, a column per case, a cell holds the
verdict of that pair. The models load on several threads (-j, --threads,
min(cores, 4) by default), the table is printed when it is complete and
the log of a model that failed is printed after it, in the order of the
rows. A case returns a verdict and the reason for it, and the runner is
the only one who reports - the test does not use tests/testing.h, a run
over 130 models is a matrix of verdicts and not a tree of subtests.

Staging no longer travels through the environment: llama_model_set_attn_rot
replaces the LLAMA_ATTN_ROT_DISABLE variable, which a model loaded in one
thread used to change for the models the other threads were loading, and
llama_memory_get_buffers is added for the cases that copy the buffers of
a memory. common_log_set_stdo keeps the console quiet while the table is
being built.

ggml_aligned_malloc allocates with posix_memalign when the thread
sanitizer is on. On macOS it allocates with the Mach VM, which the
sanitizer does not intercept, so it never sees a page range change hands
and reports the first write into recycled memory as a race - 30 of them
in this test, and every one of them false.
