Daniel Latypov 7c2b108cbe Documentation: kunit: add tips.rst for small examples
./usage.rst contains fairly long examples and explanations of things
like how to fake a class and how to use parameterized tests (and how you
could do table-driven tests yourself).

It's not exactly necessary information, so we add a new page with more
digestible tips like "use kunit_kzalloc() instead of kzalloc() so you
don't have to worry about calling kfree() yourself" and the like.

Change start.rst to point users to this new page first and let them know
that usage.rst is more of optional further reading.

David Gow 2a41fc52c2 Documentation: kunit: Add naming guidelines
As discussed in [1], KUnit tests have hitherto not had a particularly
consistent naming scheme. This adds documentation outlining how tests
and test suites should be named, including how those names should be
used in Kconfig entries and filenames.

David Gow 0d5792c9bc Documentation: kunit: Make the KUnit documentation less UML-specific
Remove some of the outmoded "Why KUnit" rationale, and move some
UML-specific information to the kunit_tool page. Also update the Getting
Started guide to mention running tests without the kunit_tool wrapper.
