Divide API test fixtures into two

See original GitHub issue

At the moment we have one api_session context manager that creates the gRPC server, then a channel, and yields this to the test client.

However, we should really have an api fixture that creates the gRPC server, and a context manager that manages the session (just channel).

This would probably speed up testing by a whole lot.

To find bugs where we accidentally store state in the servicer instead of the database, I prefer instantiating it on demand and throwing it away. Since it should have no state, it should be super cheap to instantiate.

No, we should short-circuit it without using TCP at all.
