test: Expand coverage for CommandSystem and add missing test files

- Add tests/test_command_system.cpp covering command registration, execution, aliasing, documentation, and interactive arguments.
- Track previously created but untracked test files for managers (buffer, window, kill_ring, register, macro, rectangle) and input pipeline/lua_api.
- Update tests/CMakeLists.txt to use test_command_system.cpp instead of temp file.
