Distribute tests with worksteal rather than loadfile so that a single slow file no longer determines the wall time of the run. Use simulated Keysight B220x/B1500 instruments directly instead of first probing a placeholder VISA address, simulate faster heating in the Lakeshore mocks, poll subscriber state more often and drop sleeps that are not needed.
Parsing the npy header of every stored value dominated the time it takes to load array and complex data. Cache the parsed header, since all rows of a parameter share it, and fall back to numpy's read_array for anything the fast path does not handle.
The interdependencies of a dataset can not change once it has been started, so freeze them at that point and when loading a started run rather than only during a measurement. Reads now use the dataset's own frozen description instead of parsing it from the database every call. Unfreezing at the end of a measurement was only needed because frozen and non frozen interdependencies never compared equal. Make equality symmetric and let remove on a frozen instance return a new object like extend does.
The interdependencies of a started dataset are fixed and override never updated the run description in the database, only the in memory object and data exported from it. Nothing uses it anymore since measurements no longer unfreeze the interdependencies on exit. Remove the argument from the private DataSetInMem method outright.
