Add a rustdoc example and Kunit test to the `ArrayLayout` struct's
`ArrayLayout::new()` function.
This patch depends on the first patch in this series in order for the
KUnit test to compile.

We were accidentally allocating a layout for the *square* of the object
size due to a variable shadowing mishap.
Fixes memory bloat and page allocation failures in drm/asahi.

When allocating memory for arrays using allocators, the `Layout::array`
function is typically used. It returns a result, since the given size
might be too big. However, `Vec` and its iterators store their allocated
capacity and thus they already did check that the size is not too big.
The `ArrayLayout` type provides this exact behavior, as it can be
infallibly converted into a `Layout`. Instead of a `usize` capacity,
`Vec` and other similar array-storing types can use `ArrayLayout`
instead.
