[`mod_module_files`] Don't emit lint for mod.rs in tests

fixes: #11775

current state: indiscriminately emits the lint for mod files in tests.

The following

```
tests/
  common/
    mod.rs
  test.rs
```

is a common pattern for code shared across the tests and is suggested in the rust book. The change adds an additional check to verify that the mod file is not in tests.
