Cursor Agentandrmcrackan 5beaad0498 Run FileLiberator's tests serially
Seven tests failed in a Windows CI leg, every one thrown from a
TestInitialize rather than an assertion, and on a path no test in the
failing class had created. The cause is [assembly: Parallelize] over
classes that reach for state which is process-wide by nature: the
Configuration singleton, the LIBATION_FILES_DIR environment variable, and
AudibleFileStorage's static file cache. Two classes running at once means
one swapping the config or deleting its temp directory while the other
enumerates it.

Opting out per class was the previous arrangement and it does not hold:
three classes carried [DoNotParallelize] while two touching the same
state did not, and nothing tells whoever adds the sixth. The attribute is
gone, with a comment saying why, and the existing [DoNotParallelize]
markers stay as a statement of intent if parallelism ever returns.

Costs nothing measurable: 68 tests in about 3.1 seconds serially, against
9.8 seconds for the same assembly in the CI leg that failed. Ran three
times over to check.
