Document the new test method.

test_single_foreground_weight has no docstring. Add a Google-style docstring that states the case it verifies.

As per path instructions, “Docstrings should be present for all definition...”

Review comment at @tests/losses/test_dice_loss.py at line 188:
Add a Google-style docstring to test_single_foreground_weight describing that it
verifies the expected Dice loss when a single foreground class weight is
applied.
