fix(latex): make PDF-viewer selection idempotent

cj/--latex-select-pdf-viewer runs on every LaTeX-mode buffer and was blindly pushing an (output-pdf VIEWER) entry onto TeX-view-program-selection, so each LaTeX buffer opened in a session stacked another duplicate. The head still won, so the viewer worked, but the list grew and the docstring's idempotency claim was false. I drop any existing output-pdf entry before consing the chosen viewer, which also makes "wins over any default" actually true.

Added a test file (the module had none) covering selection, preference order, the PDF-Tools fallback, idempotency, and default override, with executable-find mocked so the run doesn't depend on which viewers are installed.

+;;; test-latex-config.el --- Tests for latex-config PDF viewer selection -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-
+
+;;; Commentary:
+;; latex-config picks the first available external PDF viewer and pushes it
+;; onto `TeX-view-program-selection' for output-pdf.  These tests exercise
+;; `cj/--latex-select-pdf-viewer' with `executable-find' mocked, so they don't
+;; depend on which viewers happen to be installed on the test machine.
+
+;;; Code:
+
+(require 'ert)
+(require 'cl-lib)
+(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "modules" user-emacs-directory))
+
+;; Declare special so the let-bindings below are dynamic, matching the global
+;; valued `defvar' AUCTeX's tex.el provides at runtime.  Without it the module's
+;; file-local `(defvar TeX-view-program-selection)' does not reach a test's let.
