mocking.rst: add start of write-up on mocking + function redirection

Note: this isn't so much about mocking as it is about redirecting
function calls (potentially to a mock). But kunit.dev/mocking will
probably be more memorable and match more what people search for.

In [1], a doc was presented on stream but couldn't be made publicly
available.

This is the start of the process of making it available.

Unlike that doc, this page has a different audience and is intended to
also try and give a basic feel for what mocking is and why you
would/would not want to use it.

This first patch includes the description of fakes vs mocks and a
skeleton for the rest (the doc's overview of the different kinds of
approaches to adding indirection).
