fac49094cd test: Remove duplicate ConfigParser (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  The `test/util/test_runner.py` has many issues:

  * The boilerplate for the test runner is duplicate or inconsistent with the other (functional) tests. For example, logging options, `ConfigParser` handling, `Binaries` handling ...
  * The cmake/ci behavior is brittle and can silently fail, as explained in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/31476
  * corecheck (and likely other places that manually run the tests) completely forget to run it
  * If the test is manually called, it runs single threaded, when it could just run in parallel with the other functional tests

  Fix all issues by removing the util test_runner and moving the test logic into a new functional test file.
