Parallelize System Tests

Many tests currently load textures, and in rendy#151, using rendy in multiple threads at the same time causes a segfault. Using a mutex slows down testing a lot.

We can speed the tests up by not loading textures for Systems that simply need an AssetId and some components, instead of using AutexousiousApplication::config_base() or AutexousiousApplication::game_base()

Simply changing run_isolated() calls to run() worked. Perhaps underlying libraries or drivers were fixed to no longer have issues with running the tests in parallel.

Deferring re-organization of loading code in tests to a later date.

Perhaps introduce environmental / configuration flags that the asset part loaders read. Then even with SpriteRefs exist, they may choose to not load SpriteRenderSequences.
