Subject: [PATCH] lib: PRIME_NUMBERS_KUNIT_TEST should not select PRIME_NUMBERS

Enabling a (modular) test should not silently enable additional kernel
functionality, as that may increase the attack vector of a product.

Fix this by making PRIME_NUMBERS_KUNIT_TEST depend on PRIME_NUMBERS
instead of selecting it.

After this, one can safely enable CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS=m to build
modules for all appropriate tests for ones system, without pulling in
extra unwanted functionality, while still allowing a tester to manually
enable PRIME_NUMBERS and this test suite on a system where PRIME_NUMBERS
is not enabled by default.

Fixes: 313b38a6ecb46db4 ("lib/prime_numbers: convert self-test to KUnit")
