selftest: Taint kernel when test module loaded

Make any kselftest test module (using the kselftest_module framework)
taint the kernel with TAINT_TEST on module load.

Also mark the module as a test module using MODULE_INFO(test, "Y") so
that other tools can tell this is a test module. We can't rely solely
on this, though, as these test modules are also often built-in.

Finally, update the kselftest documentation to mention that the kernel
should be tainted, and how to do so manually (as below).

Note that several selftests use kernel modules which are not based on
the kselftest_module framework, and so will not automatically taint the
kernel.

This can be done in two ways:
- Moving the module to the tools/testing directory. All modules under
  this directory will taint the kernel.
- Adding the 'test' module property with:
  MODULE_INFO(test, "Y")

Similarly, selftests which do not load modules into the kernel generally
should not taint the kernel (or possibly should only do so on failure),
as it's assumed that testing from user-space should be safe. Regardless,
they can write to /proc/sys/kernel/tainted if required.

Note that test modules should taint the kernel with TAINT_TEST. This will
happen automatically for modules which are in the ``tools/testing/``
directory, or for modules which use the ``kselftest_module.h`` header above.
Otherwise, you'll need to add ``MODULE_INFO(test, "Y")`` to your module
source. selftests which do not load modules typically should not taint the
kernel, but in cases where a non-test module is loaded, TEST_TAINT can be
applied from userspace by writing to ``/proc/sys/kernel/tainted``.
