char: misc: add test cases
Add test cases for static and dynamic minor number allocation and deallocation. While at it, improve description and test suite name. Some of the cases include: - that static and dynamic allocation reserved the expected minors. - that registering duplicate minors or duplicate names will fail. - that failing to create a sysfs file (due to duplicate names) will deallocate the dynamic minor correctly. - that dynamic allocation does not allocate a minor number in the static range. - that there are no collisions when mixing dynamic and static allocations. - that opening devices with various minor device numbers work. - that registering a static number in the dynamic range won't conflict with a dynamic allocation. This last test verifies the bug fixed by commit 6d04d2b5 ("misc: misc_minor_alloc to use ida for all dynamic/misc dynamic minors") has not regressed.
