Fix broken links in architecture.md (#2774) Most links in `pkgs/test/doc/architecture.md` still pointed at paths from before the split into `test_api`, `test_core` and `test`. This points them at the current files with relative links. Link text and the surrounding prose are unchanged. The `lib/src/frontend` link is left as it is. Its APIs are now spread over several directories in `test_api` and `matcher`, and picking one would change what the paragraph says. A broader update of the document is out of scope here. I checked that every new relative target exists and that the external links return 200. Part of #1967.
Welcome! package:test is the standard testing library for Dart and Flutter. If you have questions about Dart testing, please see the docs for package:test. package:test_api and package:test_core are implementation details and generally not user-facing.
package:checks is a relatively new library for expressing test expectations. It's a more modern version of package:matcher and features a literate API.
