ANN: assert_raise_message

[Phlip]

Rubies:

I don't like assert_raise because the first thing I wanted to check was the
e.message was correct. So I wrote assert_raise_message, and wrote that up
as a tutorial on how to use assert_raise in general:

assert_raise_message works great for test-firsting new assertions, because
assertions should have comprehensive (and comprehensible) diagnostics. All
new assertions should come with tests that they raise the correct messages.

message = assert_raise ... do
...
end
assert_equals(..., message)
