Add automated test suite for systab

44 tests covering job creation, status, logs, pause/resume,
notifications, time format parsing, error cases, and cleanup.
Tests run against real systemd user timers with automatic cleanup.

## Testing
There are no automated tests. Test manually with systemd user timers:
```bash
./systab -t "every 5 minutes" -c "echo test"
./systab -S
./systab -L
./systab -P <id>
./systab -R <id>
./systab -C
./test.sh
```
Runs 44 tests against real systemd user timers covering job creation, status, logs, pause/resume, notifications, time format parsing, error cases, and cleanup. All test jobs are cleaned up automatically via trap.
## Notes
- ShellCheck can be used for linting: `shellcheck systab`.
