Subject: [PATCH v3] kunit: Warn if tests are slow

Kunit recently gained support to setup attributes, the first one being
the speed of a given test, then allowing to filter out slow tests.

A slow test is defined in the documentation as taking more than one
second. There's an another speed attribute called "super slow" but whose
definition is less clear.

Add support to the test runner to check the test execution time, and
report tests that should be marked as slow but aren't.

Signed-off-by: Maxime Ripard <mripard@...nel.org>

Changes from v2:
- Add defines and comments to make the warning reporting threshold more
  obvious
- Switch the duration comparisons to timespec64_compare to be more
  accurate
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230920084903.1522728-1-mripard@kernel.org/

Changes from v1:
- Split the patch out of the series
- Change to trigger the warning only if the runtime is twice the
  threshold (Jani, Rae)
- Split the speed check into a separate function (Rae)
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230911-kms-slow-tests-v1-0-d3800a69a1a1@kernel.org/
