Add tests for main package, manager, and various components

- Introduced unit tests for the main package to ensure compilation. - Added tests for the manager, including validation of upload sessions and handling of Blender binary paths. - Implemented tests for job token generation and validation, ensuring security and integrity. - Created tests for configuration management and database schema to verify functionality. - Added tests for logger and runner components to enhance overall test coverage and reliability.
