[Tests] Consolidated tracker (510 core files, 38 areas)

The tracker lists files under salt/modules/, salt/states/, and salt/utils/, with a target of at least 80% line coverage for each. Start by checking the latest Codecov report and choose one low-coverage file; read that module and its existing tests to find uncovered behavior. Done means adding tests that bring the selected file to the stated coverage target.

Overview

This tracker consolidates the remaining salt/ core files that still need test coverage work, carried over from the 2023 [Increase Test Coverage] Batch N sprint — scoped to the ten largest subsystems.

Target: raise each listed file to ≥80% line coverage.
Total files: 427 across 10 areas.
Companion tracker: #70469 covers the 28 smaller subsystems (netapi, wheel, pillar, grains, cli, …).

Scope notes

• Only files that currently exist on master are listed. Files moved to saltext.* extensions have been removed.
• Percentages at time of filing are not shown — use the latest Codecov report to prioritize the lowest-coverage files first.
• A single PR per module (or small cluster) is preferred over mega-PRs so review can keep up.
• The historical note on __salt__ detection in #64696 still applies.
