Documentation/litmus-tests: Merge atomic's README into top-level one
Where Documentation/litmus-tests/README lists RCU litmus tests, Documentation/litmus-tests/atomic/README lists atomic litmus tests. For symmetry, merge the latter into former, with some context adjustment in the introduction.

-Atomic-RMW+mb__after_atomic-is-stronger-than-acquire
- Test that an atomic RMW followed by a smp_mb__after_atomic() is
- stronger than a normal acquire: both the read and write parts of
- the RMW are ordered before the subsequential memory accesses.
-
-Atomic-RMW-ops-are-atomic-WRT-atomic_set.litmus
- Test that atomic_set() cannot break the atomicity of atomic RMWs.
