refactor: Simplify CI and reorganize test structure

## CI Simplification
- Removed release.yml workflow (no builds/releases)
- Simplified ci.yml to single test job
- Consolidated test + lint into matrix job
- Faster feedback, simpler maintenance

## Test Reorganization
Reorganized from flat 31 test files to logical hierarchy:

tests/
├── unit/           # Unit tests (parsers, writers, core, alignment)
├── integration/    # Integration tests (CLI, converter, main API)
├── benchmarks/     # Performance benchmarks
├── validation/     # Real data validation
└── test_data/      # Test datasets

## Consolidation
- Removed 14 duplicate '_comprehensive' test files
- Kept more complete unit/ versions (e.g., 26 tests vs 22)
- Consolidated topology tests
- Removed empty placeholder directories (e2e, fixtures, performance, property)
- Removed conftest_legacy.py

## Test Results
- Before: 848 tests (with duplicates)
- After: 608 tests (deduplicated)
- All tests passing: 608 passed, 4 skipped
- No functionality lost - duplicates removed

## Path Fixes
- Fixed test_data paths for moved files
- Updated validation/test_real_data.py paths
- Updated unit/core/test_circular_genome.py paths
- Updated unit/alignment/test_alignment.py paths
- Updated integration/test_main_api.py paths
