This PR adds two validation checks to `addInstance` that provide early
feedback for common mistakes in instance declarations:
1. **Non-class instance check**: errors when an instance target type is
not a type class. This catches the common mistake of writing `instance`
for a plain structure. Previously handled by the `nonClassInstance`
linter in Batteries (`Batteries.Tactic.Lint.TypeClass`), this is now
checked directly at declaration time.
2. **Impossible argument check**: errors when an instance has arguments
that cannot be inferred by instance synthesis. Specifically, it flags
arguments that are not instance-implicit and do not appear in any
subsequent instance-implicit argument or in the return type. Previously
such instances would be silently accepted but could never be
synthesised.
Supersedes #13237 and #13333.
This PR sets up the new integrated test/bench suite. It then migrates
all benchmarks and some related tests to the new suite. There's also
some documentation and some linting.
For now, a lot of the old tests are left alone so this PR doesn't become
even larger than it already is. Eventually, all tests should be migrated
to the new suite though so there isn't a confusing mix of two systems.
