lib/list-test: add a test for the 'list' doubly linked list

Add a KUnit test for the kernel doubly linked list implementation in
include/linux/list.h

Each test case (list_test_x) is focused on testing the behaviour of the
list function/macro 'x'. None of the tests pass invalid lists to these
macros, and so should behave identically with DEBUG_LIST enabled and
disabled.

Note that, at present, it only tests the list_ types (not the
singly-linked hlist_), and does not yet test all of the
list_for_each_entry* macros (and some related things like
list_prepare_entry).

Ignoring checkpatch.pl spurious errors related to its handling of for_each
and other list macros. checkpatch.pl expects anything with for_each in its
name to be a loop and expects that the open brace is placed on the same
line as for a for loop. In this case, test case naming scheme includes
name of the macro it is testing, which results in the spurious errors.

This builds the linked list KUnit test suite.
It tests that the API and basic functionality of the list_head type
and associated macros.
KUnit tests run during boot and output the results to the debug log
in TAP format (http://testanything.org/). Only useful for kernel devs
running the KUnit test harness, and not intended for inclusion into a
production build.
For more information on KUnit and unit tests in general please refer
