a32d5c0fc1 Documentation: dev-tools: Enhance static analysis section with discussion 
Enhance the static analysis tools section with a discussion on when to
use each of them.

This was mainly taken from Dan Carpenter and Julia Lawall's comments on
a previous documentation patch for static analysis tools.

3a8b57d27a docs: dev-tools: testing-overview.rst: avoid using ReST :doc:foo markup 
The :doc:`foo` tag is auto-generated via automarkup.py.
So, use the filename at the sources, instead of :doc:`foo`.

c797997a24 Documentation: dev-tools: Add Testing Overview 
The kernel now has a number of testing and debugging tools, and we've
seen a bit of confusion about what the differences between them are.

Add a basic documentation outlining the testing tools, when to use each,
and how they interact.

This is a pretty quick overview rather than the idealised "kernel
testing guide" that'd probably be optimal, but given the number of times
questions like "When do you use KUnit and when do you use Kselftest?"
are being asked, it seemed worth at least having something. Hopefully
this can form the basis for more detailed documentation later.
