Running tests takes too long #429

Description

@bbrtj

While updating Test2::Harness, I noticed it took a very long time to run all the tests.

It took me by surprise so I did not measure, but it ran for at least 15 minutes. From watching htop, it seemed like most of it was integration tests. My machine is not particularly slow, it's a T480 with i7.

Running this many tests on end machines is impractical, and may result in people installing the module with testing skipped, defeating the purpose. Please consider turning some tests into release-only or smoker-only tests.
