Move test files and baselines into subdirectories

[Timmmm]

Bug Report

VSCode can't really handle the number of files in the tests/cases/compiler directory (5386) or tests/baselines/reference (36655). It makes working with those directories very awkward!

There's plenty of scope for subdirectories, e.g.

anyAndUnknownHaveFalsyComponents.ts
anyAsReturnTypeForNewOnCall.ts
anyDeclare.ts
anyIdenticalToItself.ts
anyIndexedAccessArrayNoException.ts
anyInferenceAnonymousFunctions.ts
anyIsAssignableToObject.ts
anyIsAssignableToVoid.ts
anyMappedTypesError.ts
anyPlusAny1.ts
argsInScope.ts
arguments.ts
argumentsAsPropertyName.ts
argumentsAsPropertyName2.ts
argumentsBindsToFunctionScopeArgumentList.ts
argumentsObjectCreatesRestForJs.ts
argumentsObjectIterator01_ES5.ts
argumentsObjectIterator01_ES6.ts
argumentsObjectIterator02_ES5.ts
argumentsObjectIterator02_ES6.ts
argumentsObjectIterator03_ES5.ts
argumentsObjectIterator03_ES6.ts
argumentsReferenceInConstructor1_Js.ts
argumentsReferenceInConstructor2_Js.ts
argumentsReferenceInConstructor3_Js.ts
argumentsReferenceInConstructor4_Js.ts
argumentsReferenceInConstructor5_Js.ts
argumentsReferenceInConstructor6_Js.ts
argumentsReferenceInConstructor7_Js.ts
argumentsReferenceInMethod1_Js.ts
argumentsReferenceInMethod2_Js.ts
argumentsReferenceInMethod3_Js.ts
argumentsReferenceInMethod4_Js.ts
argumentsReferenceInMethod5_Js.ts
argumentsReferenceInMethod6_Js.ts
argumentsReferenceInMethod7_Js.ts
argumentsUsedInObjectLiteralProperty.ts
arithAssignTyping.ts
arithmeticOnInvalidTypes.ts
arithmeticOnInvalidTypes2.ts
arityErrorRelatedSpanBindingPattern.ts
arrayAssignmentTest1.ts
arrayAssignmentTest2.ts
arrayAssignmentTest3.ts
arrayAssignmentTest4.ts
arrayAssignmentTest5.ts
arrayAssignmentTest6.ts

Could be in these subdirectories

any
arguments
arithmetic
arity
arrayAssignment

I think that would cut down the number of subdirectories to something like 1000 which is much more reasonable. It could be a mostly automated change since the tests are named nicely and in most cases you could just group them by their first word (or maybe even first 1/2 letters?).

I wouldn't mind a couple changes here:

• The baseline output structure should match the test file layout
• tests/cases/compiler could be organized up in some meaningful way (probably something better than a filename splice)
