Concrete playback needs tweak for harnesses under cfg(test)

[zhassan-aws]

The current instructions for the concrete playback feature include adding kani in the dev-dependencies section. If the harness of interest is under #[cfg(test)], then cargo kani needs to be run with the --tests option. However, including --tests results in trying to compile the Kani crate with Kani! This fails with the following error:

The workaround I've used is to remove kani from the dev-dependencies, before running cargo kani, then add it back before running debugging the generated harness.

Steps to reproduce:

1. cargo new --lib conc_playback
2. cd conc_playback
3. Add kani to dev-dependencies in Cargo.toml:

[dev-dependencies]
kani = { git = "https://github.com/model-checking/kani", features = ["concrete_playback"] }

4. Run cargo kani --tests

[zhassan-aws]

One easy fix is to update the instructions to suggest conditionally adding kani as a dev dependency:

[target.'cfg(not(kani))'.dev-dependencies]
kani = { git = "https://github.com/model-checking/kani", features = ["concrete_playback"] }

That's an interesting one... There's definitely a conflict between --tests and --concrete-playback.

It feels a bit counter intuitive to add kani under cfg(not(kani)). Another issue is that the --concrete-playback feature adds the test case in the same module as the proof harness. So this fix wouldn't work if the harness is inside a module guarded with #[cfg(kani)]:

#[cfg(kani)]
mod harnesses {
  #[kani:proof]
  fn my_harness() {}

  // Test will be here.
}

Ran into this issue while adding the concrete playback button for the extension, this causes all cfg(test) or #[test] cases to crash and it gives the same underlying error.
