Subject[PATCH] Documentation: kunit: rewrite writing first test instructions
Date
The wordings of step-by-step instructions on writing the first Kunit test
are instructing readers to write codes without knowing what these are about.
Rewrite these instructions to include the purpose of written code.

While at it, align the code blocks of these contents.

This patch is based on Khalid's full path to .kunitconfig patch [1].
