fix: add Lazy-load Axe::API::Run to improve boot time (#396)

It saves 95% of load time when doing `require "axe-rspec"`. The time is actually spent loading the `virtus` library. Deferring the loading of `Axe::API::Run` until needed does in turn defer the loading of `virtus` library. No QA required. --------- Co-authored-by: Christophe Bliard <[email protected]>
