[Grok-dev] documentation issue wrt megrok.layout

[Souheil CHELFOUH]

Hello,

The readme of megrok.layout is indeed very synthetic.
The grok_component is declaring in the globals of the testing machinery.
It comes from : grokcore.component.testing

It's not detailed because this process is done at start time by Grok, normally.
