[PATCH 3/9] kunit: Pass additional context to generate_params for parameterized testing

To enable more complex parameterized test scenarios,
the `generate_params` function sometimes needs additional
context beyond just the previously generated parameter.
This patch modifies the `generate_params` function signature
to include an extra `struct kunit *test` argument, giving
users access to the parent kunit test's context when
generating subsequent parameters.

The `struct kunit *test` argument was added as the first parameter
to the function signature as it aligns with the convention
of other KUnit functions that accept `struct kunit *test` first.
This also mirrors the "this" or "self" reference found
in object-oriented programming languages.
