Do we want to print this, or is it a leftover debug statement?

Why are we adding this everywhere when it's already in config_tests,
which should already be called in all of the places where a
kunitconfig is required?
Is the goal to always copy the default kunitconfig when creating a new
build_dir? While I can sort-of see why we might want to do that, if
the build dir doesn't exist, most of the subcommands will fail anyway
(maybe we should only create the build-dir for 'config' and 'run'?)
