selftests: riscv: Add README for RISC-V KSelfTest 



Add a README file for RISC-V specific kernel selftests under
tools/testing/selftests/riscv/. This mirrors the existing README
for arm64, providing clear guidance on how the tests are architecture
specific and skipped on non-riscv systems. It also includes
standard make commands for building, running and installing the
tests, along with a reference to general kselftest documentation.

KSelfTest RISC-V

================



- These tests are riscv specific and so not built or run but just skipped

  completely when env-variable ARCH is found to be different than 'riscv'.



- Holding true the above, RISC-V KSFT tests can be run within the

  KSelfTest framework using standard Linux top-level-makefile targets:



      $ make TARGETS=riscv kselftest-clean

      $ make TARGETS=riscv kselftest



      or



      $ make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=riscv \

		INSTALL_PATH=<your-installation-path> install



      or, alternatively, only specific riscv/ subtargets can be picked:



      $ make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=riscv RISCV_SUBTARGETS="mm vector" \

		INSTALL_PATH=<your-installation-path> install



   Further details on building and running KSFT can be found in:
