Global history testing

[aadcg]

In d32b369 a change was introduced to deal with that fact that running these tests locally always failed. However, running the test suite twice locally results in the same problem.

Steps to reproduce:

• (asdf:load-system "nyxt/tests")
• (in-package :nyxt/tests)
• (dotimes (_ 2) (with-summary () (run-test 'global-history)))

NYXT/TESTS> (dotimes (_ 2) (with-summary () (run-test 'global-history)))

It's a different problem but yes, the test is not functional enough then! Thanks for catching this, André!

Should we have a meta-test that runs the tests twice?

Should we have a meta-test that runs the tests twice?

I don't think so honestly. We'd be leaning towards a (potentially) endless chain of meta testing that goes by: program -> test(program) -> test(test(program)) -> ...

We just need to be extremely careful so that our test suite is as bug-free as we can. It's ok it's not perfect yet :)

@aadcg Is this fixed? Wrong issue, sorry :p
