Breno Leitao 195a56986c docs: fault-injection: document cache-filter feature for failslab
The failslab fault injection mechanism has an undocumented capability
that provides significant utility in testing and debugging. This feature,
introduced in commit 4c13dd3b48 ("failslab: add ability to filter slab
caches"), allows for targeted error injection into specific slab caches.

However, it was inadvertently left undocumented at the time of its
implementation.

Add documentation for the cache-filter feature in the failslab mode
description. Also, providing a practical example demonstrating how to
use cache-filter to inject failures specifically when allocating socket
buffers (skbs).
