KUnit has support for setup/cleanup logic for each test case in a suite.
But it lacks the ability to specify setup/cleanup for the entire suite
itself.
This can be used to do setup that is too expensive or cumbersome to do
for each test.
Or it can be used to do simpler things like log debug information after
the suite completes.
It's a fairly common feature, so the lack of it is noticeable.
Some examples in other frameworks and languages:
* https://docs.python.org/3/library/unittest.html#setupclass-and-teardownclass
* https://google.github.io/googletest/reference/testing.html#Test::SetUpTestSuite
Meta:
This is very similar to this patch here: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20210805043503.20252-3-bvanassche@acm.org/
The changes from that patch:
* pass in `struct kunit *` so users can do stuff like
`kunit_info(suite, "debug message")`
* makes sure the init failure is bubbled up as a failure
* updates kunit-example-test.c to use a suite init
* Updates kunit/usage.rst to mention the new support
* some minor cosmetic things
* use `suite_{init,exit}` instead of `{init/exit}_suite`
* make suite init error message more consistent w/ test init
* etc.

Commit fadb08e7c7 ("kunit: Support for Parameterized Testing")
introduced support but lacks documentation for how to use it.
This patch builds on commit 1f0e943df6 ("Documentation: kunit: provide
guidance for testing many inputs") to show a minimal example of the new
feature.

usage.rst goes into a detailed section about faking out classes, but
currently lacks wording about how one might idiomatically test a range
of inputs.
Add a new chapter for "Common Patterns" and group "Isolating behvaior"
and this new section under there.
Give an example of how one might test a hash function via macros/helper
funcs and a table-driven test and very briefly discuss pros and cons.
Also highlight the KUNIT_EXPECT_*_MSG() variants (that aren't mentioned
elsewhere [1]) which are particularly useful in these situations.
It is also criminally underused at the moment, only appearing in 2
tests (both written by people involved in KUnit).
