selftests/dyndbg: Add kselftest script to verify dynamic-debug

This commit introduces a kselftest script and a syslog/control-file hash
validation helper library to test dynamic_debug grammar and query execution
against a database of golden MD5 fingerprints.

[Severity: Medium]
When kselftest runs dyndbg_selftest.sh via runner.sh, it first changes the
working directory into tools/testing/selftests/dynamic_debug/ (or the
installed selftest directory), where .config is not present unless
KCONFIG_CONFIG is set to an absolute path.

In that case, the fallback branch unconditionally sets LACK_DD_BUILTIN=0.
However, on a kernel built with CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE=y and
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=n, /proc/dynamic_debug/control still exists, while
built-in files such as kernel/params.c have no dynamic debug descriptors.
Will FT_basic_queries() then fail to skip and report false DRIFTED failures
on empty diffs? Could the runtime fallback instead probe
/proc/dynamic_debug/control for ^kernel/params.c: to set LACK_DD_BUILTIN?

Also, /proc/dynamic_debug/control is created with mode 0644, so the
[ -e /proc/dynamic_debug/control ] check succeeds for unprivileged users,
causing the script to fail with $ksft_fail on the first write in ddcmd()
or /dev/kmsg instead of skipping. Should this check for write permission
(-w /proc/dynamic_debug/control) or root privileges before running the
tests?

[Severity: Medium]
The header comment in dyndbg_selftest.sh documents that K=0 fails with exit 1
on checksum drift or stale records, and K=1 exits 0 with "fake success".

In audit_golden_records(), stale_found and dupes are local variables and the
function ends with rm -f "$seen_file", returning 0 without propagating the
failure to the caller in dyndbg_selftest.sh (which only sets failed=1 when
UNREG_HASHES_FILE or DRIFT_HASHES_FILE is non-empty). Doesn't this mean stale
records or duplicate labels in GOLDEN_RECORDS() will never cause K=0 to exit
with $ksft_fail or K=1 to report "fake success"?

In addition, verify_fingerprint() writes only "$fingerprint" to
SEEN_HASHES_FILE without the test label, and audit_golden_records() checks
only whether the hash appears in "$seen_file". When multiple test cases in
GOLDEN_RECORDS() share the same MD5 hash (for example, FT_grammar_errs.21 and
FT_grammar_errs.41 both have 94cdf3b32afa4f12a00a704208aa2e53, and
FT_grammar_errs.25 and FT_grammar_errs.45 both have
644b81753949ac1285e38ac995eeba46), won't running just one of those tests mark
the hash as seen for all of them and hide unexecuted labels? Should
SEEN_HASHES_FILE record both the fingerprint and label (and be truncated with
: > "$seen_file" instead of removed with rm -f)?
