Carve out the server testing facility as a separate support lib file. #118
This provides a support library facility for running http servers under test in a separate thread - something that is necessary because we need tests to be able to issue requests against them.
Note for the historical record: there was an attempt to make the executon wrapped inherit from Thread but experience showed that it was just too difficult to get right when also intending to keep a reference to an event that must be consulted from the parent - opt insteda to create an objectthat quacks much like a Thread but creates one internally at a time of its pleasing.
