Add tips to clean source tree to build help message. When user run kunit.py after building another kernel for ARCH=foo, it is necessary to run 'make ARCH=foo mrproper' to remove all build artifacts generated during the build. In such cases, kunit build could fail.

Nit: could perhaps that line be broken in a bit more readable way?
