- Use a recursive descent parser so that it's easy to extend.
- Add `@args` to enable customizing command-line arguments
- Add `@should-start` to enable `nix repl` tests that error before
entering the REPL
- Make sure to read all stdout output before comparing. This catches
some extra output we were tossing out before!

This was achieved by running maintainers/buildtime_report.sh on the
build directory of a meson build, then asking "why the heck is json
eating our build times", and strategically moving the json using bits
out of widely included headers.
It turns out that putting literally any metrics whatsoever into the
build had immediate and predictable results.
Results are 1382.5s frontend time -> 1175.4s frontend time, back end
time approximately invariant.

This allows for automating using the repl without needing a PTY, with
very easy to write test files.

This parser can be reused for other purposes. It's inspired by

Although eelco's impostor exists https://github.com/mobusoperandi/eelco,
it is not very nice to depend on out of tree testing frameworks with no
way to customize them.
