Daniel Latypov cd4a9bc8e0 minor: kunit: tool: fix unit test so it can run from non-root dir
Also take this time to rename get_absolute_path() to test_data_path().

1. the name is currently a lie. It gives relative paths, e.g. if I run
from the same dir as the test file, it gives './test_data/<file>'

See https://docs.python.org/3/reference/import.html#__file__, which
doesn't stipulate that implementations provide absolute paths.

2. it's only used for generating paths to tools/testing/kunit/test_data/
So we can tersen things by making it less general.

Cache the absolute path to the test data files per suggestion from  [1].
Using relative paths, the tests break because of this code in kunit.py
  if get_kernel_root_path():
          os.chdir(get_kernel_root_path())
