lua/stdlib: Introduce vim.shared

This is where "pure functions" can live, which can be shared by Nvim and
test logic which may not have a running Nvim instance available.

If in the future we use Nvim itself as the Lua engine for tests, then
these functions could be moved directly onto the `vim` Lua module.
