There are already 2 other KUnit tests in `lib/` covering different 
groups of string functions separately (lib/strscpy_kunit.c, 
lib/strcat_kunit.c), so this patch just follows this pattern. I believe 
it makes sense: the tests are separated to cover one specific group of 
string functions with a similar purpose
