kunit: test: add support for test abort

Add support for aborting/bailing out of test cases, which is needed for
implementing assertions.

An assertion is like an expectation, but bails out of the test case
early if the assertion is not met. The idea with assertions is that you
use them to state all the preconditions for your test. Logically
speaking, these are the premises of the test case, so if a premise isn't
true, there is no point in continuing the test case because there are no
conclusions that can be drawn without the premises. Whereas, the
expectation is the thing you are trying to prove.

+/**
+ * struct kunit_try_catch - provides a generic way to run code which might fail.
+ * @test: The test case that is currently being executed.
+ * @try_completion: Completion that the control thread waits on while test runs.
+ * @try_result: Contains any errno obtained while running test case.
+ * @try: The function, the test case, to attempt to run.
+ * @catch: The function called if @try bails out.
+ * @context: used to pass user data to the try and catch functions.
+ *
+ * kunit_try_catch provides a generic, architecture independent way to execute
+ * an arbitrary function of type kunit_try_catch_func_t which may bail out by
+ * calling kunit_try_catch_throw(). If kunit_try_catch_throw() is called, @try
+ * is stopped at the site of invocation and @catch is called.
+ *
+ * struct kunit_try_catch provides a generic interface for the functionality
+ * needed to implement kunit->abort() which in turn is needed for implementing
+ * assertions. Assertions allow stating a precondition for a test simplifying
+ * how test cases are written and presented.
+ *
+ * Assertions are like expectations, except they abort (call
+ * kunit_try_catch_throw()) when the specified condition is not met. This is
+ * useful when you look at a test case as a logical statement about some piece
+ * of code, where assertions are the premises for the test case, and the
+ * conclusion is a set of predicates, rather expectations, that must all be
+ * true. If your premises are violated, it does not makes sense to continue.
