Setup single-process integration testing with a utility module. Designed
so multiple tests can be run without the need for separate processes.
In practice, this means new tests will not need a new file. It allows
for easily repeating checks across similar functions e.g. `dotenv()` and
`from_filename(".env")`.
The heart of the utility module is the `TestEnv` struct which enables
controlled setup of a temporary testing environment. When using the
`test_in_env` functions, access to the process' environment is
effectively locked using a mutex, reset, and then the `TestEnv` is
created.
Also included:
- a set of default keys and values
- valid and invalid default envfile contents
- assertions with contextual output when tests fail
