lib/test_sysctl: support testing of sysctl. boot parameter

Testing is done by a new parameter debug.test_sysctl.boot_int which
defaults to 0 and it's expected that the tester passes a boot parameter
that sets it to 1.  The test checks if it's set to 1.

To distinguish true failure from parameter not being set, the test
checks /proc/cmdline for the expected parameter, and whether test_sysctl
is built-in and not a module.

[vbabka@suse.cz: skip the new test if boot_int sysctl is not present]
