Making all of our integration tests run in entirely parallel requires
a large engineering effort to enforce test isolation and remove all race
conditions between tests.
A lower-effort alternative may be to split apart the various test suites
into their own Go packages, and test those packages in parallel, even if
the tests inside are still executed serially. Auditing the test suites
for races on system-level resources (e.g. files, ports) is much easier
than chasing down every p[ossible race in the testing system.
This patch acts as a trial run, breaking a fairly well-defined and
self-contained test suite out into its own package. Note that the goal of
this change is not necessarily to shave minutes off the build (although
that would be nice), but to act as an illustration of how other, less
well-formed test suites might be broken apart.
