Joel Granados 138303ec6c sysctl: move u8 register test to lib/test_sysctl.c ...

If the test added in commit b5ffbd1396 ("sysctl: move the extra1/2
boundary check of u8 to sysctl_check_table_array") is run as a module, a
lingering reference to the module is left behind, and a 'sysctl -a'
leads to a panic.

To reproduce
    CONFIG_KUNIT=y
    CONFIG_SYSCTL_KUNIT_TEST=m

Then run these commands:
    modprobe sysctl-test
    rmmod sysctl-test
    sysctl -a

The panic varies but generally looks something like this:

    BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffa4571c0c7db4
    #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
    #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page

     do_syscall_64+0x70/0x150
     entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e

Move the test to lib/test_sysctl.c where the registration reference is
handled on module exit
