Add `example_params_test_with_init` to illustrate how to manage shared resources across parameterized KUnit tests. This example showcases the use of the new `param_init` function and its registration to a test using the `KUNIT_CASE_PARAM_WITH_INIT` macro.
Additionally, the test demonstrates:
- How to directly assign a static parameter array to a test via `kunit_register_params_array`.
- Leveraging the Resource API for test resource management.

Thanks for writing some examples! This is great, and makes the rest of the series much easier to understand.
(It also reminds me how much I hate the verbose parts of the resource API, but it's definitely out of scope to refactor that here. :-))
It does seem like this is a lot of effort to go through for one shared integer, though. In the real world, I'd suggest using kunit->parent->priv here. As an example, though, it's fine (though maybe using a named resource or even kunit_kzalloc() or similar would give a better example of how convenient this could be.
It's also not entirely clear why we're using kunit_register_params_array() for a static array, when KUNIT_ARRAY_PARAM() exists. (This is clearly because the latter doesn't support init functions; and I see why we don't necessarily want to make the number of macros explode through adding KUNIT_ARRAY_PARAM_WITH_INIT() et al, but maybe we should note that in the commit description, either here or before.)
Actual test looks fine, though:
