On Windows, the `os.Process.Signal` method returns an error when sending
`os.Interrupt` (SIGINT) because it isn't implemented. This causes test servers
in the `testutil` packages to break on Windows. Use the platform specific
syscalls to generate the SIGINT instead.
The agent's signal handler also did not correctly handle the Ctrl-C because we
were masking os.Interrupt instead of SIGINT.

OIDC mandates the support of the RS256 signing algorithm so in order to maximize workload identity's usefulness this change switches from using the EdDSA signing algorithm to RS256.
Old keys will continue to use EdDSA but new keys will use RS256. The EdDSA generation code was left in place because it's fast and cheap and I'm not going to lie I hope we get to use it again.
**Test Updates**
Most of our Variables and Keyring tests had a subtle assumption in them that the keyring would be initialized by the time the test server had elected a leader. ed25519 key generation is so fast that the fact that it was happening asynchronously with server startup didn't seem to cause problems. Sadly rsa key generation is so slow that basically all of these tests failed.
I added a new `testutil.WaitForKeyring` helper to replace `testutil.WaitForLeader` in cases where the keyring must be initialized before the test may continue. However this is mostly used in the `nomad/` package.
In the `api` and `command/agent` packages I decided to switch their helpers to wait for keyring initialization by default. This will slow down tests a bit, but allow those packages to not be as concerned with subtle server readiness details. On my machine rsa key generation takes 63ms, so hopefully the difference isn't significant on CI runners.
**TODO**
- Docs and changelog entries.
- Upgrades - right now upgrades won't get RS256 keys until their root key rotates either manually or after ~30 days.
- Observability - I'm not sure there's a way for operators to see if they're using EdDSA or RS256 unless they inspect a key. The JWKS endpoint can be inspected to see if EdDSA will be used for new identities, but it doesn't technically define which key is active. If upgrades can be fixed to automatically rotate keys, we probably don't need to worry about this.
**Requiem for ed25519**
When workload identities were first implemented we did not immediately consider OIDC compliance. Consul, Vault, and many other third parties support JWT auth methods without full OIDC compliance. For the machine<-->machine use cases workload identity is intended to fulfill, OIDC seemed like a bigger risk than asset.
EdDSA/ed25519 is the signing algorithm we chose for workload identity JWTs because of all these lovely properties:
1. Deterministic keys that can be derived from our preexisting root keys. This was perhaps the biggest factor since we already had a root encryption key around from which we could derive a signing key.
2. Wonderfully compact: 64 byte private key, 32 byte public key, 64 byte signatures. Just glorious.
3. No parameters. No choices of encodings. It's all well-defined by [RFC 8032](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8032).
4. Fastest performing signing algorithm! We don't even care that much about the performance of our chosen algorithm, but what a free bonus!
5. Arguably one of the most secure signing algorithms widely available. Not just from a cryptanalysis perspective, but from an API and usage perspective too.
Life was good with ed25519, but sadly it could not last.
[IDPs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identity_provider), such as AWS's IAM OIDC Provider, love OIDC. They have OIDC implemented for humans, so why not reuse that OIDC support for machines as well? Since OIDC mandates RS256, many implementations don't bother implementing other signing algorithms (or at least not advertising their support). A quick survey of OIDC Discovery endpoints revealed only 2 out of 10 OIDC providers advertised support for anything other than RS256:
- [PayPal](https://www.paypalobjects.com/.well-known/openid-configuration) supports HS256
- [Yahoo](https://api.login.yahoo.com/.well-known/openid-configuration) supports ES256
RS256 only:
- [GitHub](https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com/.well-known/openid-configuration)
- [GitLab](https://gitlab.com/.well-known/openid-configuration)

* Add UnexpectedResultError to nomad/api
This allows users to perform additional status-based behavior by rehydrating the error using `errors.As` inside of consumers.
This PR tries to make API tests run fast, as an experiment to later apply
to all packages. Key changes include
- Swapping freeport for test/portal for port allocations
- Swappng some uses of WaitForResult with test/wait
- Turning on parallelism in api/testutil/slow.go
- Switching to custom public runner (32 vcpu)
There's also chunk of cleanup brought in for the ride
* Fixup uses of `sanity`
* Remove unnecessary comments.
These checks are better explained by earlier comments about
the context of the test. Per @tgross, moved the tests together
to better reinforce the overall shared context.
* Update nomad/fsm_test.go
If the user has disabled Prometheus metrics and a request is
sent to the metrics endpoint requesting Prometheus formatted
metrics, then the request should fail.
Ensure that api test agent is terminated gracefully. This is desired for
two purposes:
First, to ensure that the logs are fully flished out. If the agent is
killed mid log line and go test doesn't emit a new line before `---
PASS:` indicator, the test may be marked as failed, even if it passed.
Sample failure is https://circleci.com/gh/hashicorp/nomad/72360 .
Second, ensure that the agent terminates any auxiliary processes (e.g.
logmon, tasks).
* Divest api/ package of deps elsewhere in the nomad repo.
This will allow making api/ a module without then pulling in the
external repo, leading to a package name conflict.
This required some migration of tests to an apitests/ folder (can be
moved anywhere as it has no deps on it). It also required some
duplication of code, notably some test helpers from api/ -> apitests/
and part (but not all) of testutil/ -> api/testutil/.
Once there's more separation and an e.g. sdk/ folder those can be
removed in favor of a dep on the sdk/ folder, provided the sdk/ folder
doesn't depend on api/ or /.
* Also remove consul dep from api/ package
* Fix stupid linters
* Some restructuring
