In some cases, you need to call test-only code from outside the test
case, for example, to mock a function or a module.

In order to check whether we are in a test or not, we need to test if
`CONFIG_KUNIT` is set.
Unfortunately, we cannot rely only on this condition because some
distros compile KUnit in production kernels, so checking at runtime
that `current->kunit_test != NULL` is required.

Note that the C function `kunit_get_current_test()` can not be used
because it is not present in the current Rust tree yet. Once it is
available we might want to change our Rust wrapper to use it.

This patch adds a function to know whether we are in a KUnit test or
not and examples showing how to mock a function and a module.

Note here are two unsafe operations: `Task::current()` and the pointer
dereference. You can use the `current!()` macro here to avoid the first
unsafe operation here. Besides I think it'll be better if
in_kunit_test() is a safe method for `Task`? That will be easier for us
to track the usage of task_struct fields in Rust side. But I'm OK with
either way.
