Subject: [RFC PATCH] kunit: Move kunit_abort() call out of kunit_do_failed_assertion()

KUnit aborts the current thread when an assertion fails. Currently, this
is done conditionally as part of the kunit_do_failed_assertion()
function, but this hides the kunit_abort() call from the compiler
(particularly if it's in another module). This, in turn, can lead to
both suboptimal code generation (the compiler can't know if
kunit_do_failed_assertion() will return), and to static analysis tools
like smatch giving false positives.

Moving the kunit_abort() call into the macro should give the compiler
and tools a better chance at understanding what's going on. Doing so
requires exporting kunit_abort(), though it's recommended to continue to
use assertions in lieu of aborting directly.
