Move sources for libgmxapi.

Sources in src/api/cpp exclusively supported the public libgmxapi
interface whose headers now live in api/include/gmxapi. The sources are
not coupled to anything in src/gromacs or src, and have been moved to
api/cpp/gmxapi to better enforce this decoupling.

Currently, the unit tests for this code still rely on infrastructure in
src/ and cannot yet be moved.
