chore: reorganize test files into domain-specific subdirectories under tests/

Split the monolithic test directory into three tiers (unit, api, e2e) with a path-mirroring directory structure. Added corresponding Makefile targets (test-unit, test-api, test-e2e) and updated all documentation references (CLAUDE.md, README.md, testing-cicd.html, testing-framework.html, testing-make.html) to reflect the new layout and naming conventions.
