The reftable library comes with self tests, which are exercised as part of the usual end-to-end tests and are designed to observe the end-user visible effects of Git commands. What it exercises, however, is a better match for the unit-testing framework, merged at 8bf6fbd0 (Merge branch 'js/doc-unit-tests', 2023-12-09), which is designed to observe how low level implementation details, at the level of sequences of individual function calls, behave. Hence, port reftable/stack_test.c to the unit testing framework and improve upon the ported test. The first patch in the series moves the test to the unit testing framework, and the rest of the patches improve upon the ported test.
