LOG: [lit][docs] Mention LIT_OPTS instead of LIT_ARGS (#147494)

Noticed that the current
[docs](https://llvm.org/docs/TestingGuide.html#unit-and-regression-tests)
recommend using LIT_ARGS (config option in cmake script), rather than
LIT_OPTS (environment variable interpreted by lit directly). While
LIT_ARGS doesn't do anything at all when set with make, at least not in
a way outlined in the docs.
