Run_wrapper.rst was missing some command line arguments. Added
additional args in the file.

Small nit pick: I would rather do:

```
./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kconfig_add CONFIG_KASAN=y

Nit: choose a standard for referring to qemu. Either "qemu" or "QEMU" is
great for me, but it is ideal that you chose one and stick with it.
Here, you used "qemu" and on the next argument, you used "QEMU".

Anyway, the documentation is pretty good and informative! The small nits
I pointed out are optional. So,

Looks good to me. A couple of super-minor suggestions below, and a
note about how KASAN/UML support hasn't fully landed yet (but I still
like it as an example, so maybe leave it as-is).

None of these are deal breakers, though, and I'd be okay with this
going in as-is, as well.

Just FYI, this example won't work as-is until KASAN for UML is merged.
It's already sitting in uml/next, so this shouldn't be a problem:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/uml/linux.git/commit/?h=next&id=5b301409e8bc5d7fad2ee138be44c5c529dd0874

But if you want to try it on 5.19 or the current kunit branch, you'll
need to add, e.g., --arch=x86_64

I'm not quite sold on 'must match the Kbuild ARCH environment
variable'. That seems to imply to me that you need to set ARCH= _and_
use --arch. Instead, --arch itself sets ARCH=, so the values use the
same names.

Nit: maybe "can be repeated"? As it's the reader of this documentation
who will likely be doing the repeating. Or "may be repeated"?

Aside from the small nits pointed out by Maíra and David, this looks good to me.

A minor suggestion down below to go along with what everyone else has said.

Minor nit: I think ``-smp 8`` would be a bit better here.
It feels like it would fit what we did with other example arguments.
