lockdep/selftest: Add spin_nest_lock test

Add a self test case to test the behavior for the following case:

        lock(A);
        lock_nest_lock(C1, A);
        lock(B);
        lock_nest_lock(C2, A);

This is a reproducer for a problem[1] reported by Chris Wilson, and is
helpful to prevent this.
