docs about Conditional tests with Gradle are wrong

hi!

at https://kotest.io/docs/framework/conditional/conditional-tests-with-gradle.html#kotest-specific-test-filtering the statements do not work, since an equal sign is missing. e.g:

gradle test -Dkotest.filter.specs 'com.somepackage.*'

should become:

gradle test -Dkotest.filter.specs='com.somepackage.*'

also the documented approach does not work because gradle (at least in v7.x) does not pass on system props to the test JVM (see the discussion here). so at least some (not mentioned) gradle config tweaking is necessary to pass the system properties.

seeing this, i think it would actually be nice if kotest would use environment variables instead of system properties, since those are passed automatically.

And we already support them as env vars so I’ve added that to the docs as well.

Good to know.
