Description

Building on earlier work in ARTEMIS-3874 and ARTEMIS-4583 and other related work, break the inter-dependency chains between lots of the modules within the tests/ subtree and remove the remaining test-jar creations/uses that facilitated it. Instead of this, consolidate test utility code/classes where needed into the tests/artemis-test-support module (for use by any modules in the tests/ tree, primarily for system/integration testing, and including stuff that relies on the main Artemis build modules).
