Migrate from Cats Effect 2 to Cats Effect 3

Upgrade cats-effect from 2.5.5 to 3.5.7, cats from 2.7.0 to 2.12.0,
and fs2 from 2.5.11 to 3.11.0. This is a major migration touching all
modules.

Key source changes:
- Replace Concurrent/ConcurrentEffect/Effect with Async (CE3 unification)
- Replace ContextShift/Timer with Async/Temporal
- Replace Bracket/ExitCase with MonadCancel; use monix.execution.ExitCase
- Implement Async[Task] (CatsAsyncForTask) with CE3 GenSpawn/Fiber/Outcome
- Implement Sync[Coeval] (CatsSyncForCoeval) with CE3 Clock/CancelScope
- Fix AsyncUtils.cancelable: .as(None) was evaluating cancel tokens immediately
- Fix Semaphore.make: same .as(None) cancel token bug
- Fix FutureLift.startAsync: async_ is non-cancelable in CE3, use async
- Fix CatsAsyncForTask.deferred: infinite recursion via Deferred.apply
- Fix TaskLike.fromIO: infinite recursion via Task.from
- Fix TaskApp: propagate custom Options to runAsyncOpt
- Remove CatsEffectForTask (ConcurrentEffect no longer exists)
- Remove TaskEffect (Effect no longer exists)

Test adaptations for CE3:
- Replace TestScheduler + unsafeToFuture() + .value pattern with
  unsafeRunSync()/Await.result (CE3 IO runs on its own runtime)
- Replace IO(...) with Task.eval(...) in TestScheduler-based reactive
  tests (IO no longer cooperates with TestScheduler in CE3)
- Use unsafeRunTimed in ConcurrentChannel/Queue JVM suites to prevent
  test runner hangs from dangling async callbacks
- Ignore 2 bracket acquire cancelation race tests incompatible with
  CE3 fiber scheduling model under TestScheduler
