kasan: docs: update tests section

Update the "Tests" section in KASAN documentation:

 - Add an introductory sentence.

 - Add proper indentation for the list of ways to run KUnit tests.

 - Punctuation, readability, and other minor clean-ups.

KASAN tests consist of two parts:
There are KASAN tests that allow verifying that KASAN works and can detect
certain types of memory corruptions. The tests consist of two parts:
1. Tests that are integrated with the KUnit Test Framework. Enabled with
``CONFIG_KASAN_KUNIT_TEST``. These tests can be run and partially verified
automatically in a few different ways, see the instructions below.

There are a few ways to run KUnit-compatible KASAN tests.
1. Loadable module
With ``CONFIG_KUNIT`` enabled, ``CONFIG_KASAN_KUNIT_TEST`` can be built as
a loadable module and run on any architecture that supports KASAN by loading
the module with insmod or modprobe. The module is called ``test_kasan``.
With ``CONFIG_KUNIT`` enabled, KASAN-KUnit tests can be built as a loadable
module and run by loading ``test_kasan.ko`` with ``insmod`` or ``modprobe``.
2. Built-In
With ``CONFIG_KUNIT`` built-in, ``CONFIG_KASAN_KUNIT_TEST`` can be built-in
on any architecure that supports KASAN. These and any other KUnit tests enabled
will run and print the results at boot as a late-init call.
With ``CONFIG_KUNIT`` built-in, KASAN-KUnit tests can be built-in as well.
In this case, the tests will run at boot as a late-init call.
3. Using kunit_tool
With ``CONFIG_KUNIT`` and ``CONFIG_KASAN_KUNIT_TEST`` built-in, it's also
possible use ``kunit_tool`` to see the results of these and other KUnit tests
in a more readable way. This will not print the KASAN reports of the tests that
passed. Use `KUnit documentation <https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/dev-tools/kunit/index.html>`_
for more up-to-date information on ``kunit_tool``.
