runtime verifier updates for v7.4:

- Improve lockdep annotation for reactors
 
   Reactors are not supposed to take locks, so they fit the LD_WAIT_FREE
   lockdep class. However, reactors may run in preemptible context and
   if the preempting code (tick or simply the scheduler) takes locks, we
   see a lockdep splat. Switch to LD_WAIT_SPIN to avoid the splat while
   documenting that reactors should still not take locks.
 
 - Add KUnit tests for reactors
 
   Add KUnit test cases to validate registration and reaction, this
   requires exporting some symbols and other minor fixes.
 
 - Use the right rv_this variable in the wakeup monitor
 
   LTL monitors were updated to use the generic rv_this static variable
   but this change wasn't propagated to the newly introduced wakeup
   monitor. This broke reactors for the monitor: update the it.

 - Improve lockdep annotation for reactors

   Reactors are not supposed to take locks, so they fit the LD_WAIT_FREE
   lockdep class. However, reactors may run in preemptible context and
   if the preempting code (tick or simply the scheduler) takes locks, we
   see a lockdep splat. Switch to LD_WAIT_SPIN to avoid the splat while
   documenting that reactors should still not take locks.

 - Add KUnit tests for reactors

   Add KUnit test cases to validate registration and reaction, this
   requires exporting some symbols and other minor fixes.

   LTL monitors were updated to use the generic rv_this static variable
   but this change wasn't propagated to the newly introduced wakeup
   monitor. This broke reactors for the monitor: update the it.

Enable KUnit tests for RV reactor registration and dispatch.
These tests verify the register/unregister lifecycle, duplicate
rejection, and that rv_react() correctly invokes callbacks.
If unsure, say N.
