Hi Brendan,

Add support for aborting/bailing out of test cases, which is needed for
implementing assertions.
An assertion is like an expectation, but bails out of the test case
early if the assertion is not met. The idea with assertions is that you
use them to state all the preconditions for your test. Logically
speaking, these are the premises of the test case, so if a premise isn't
true, there is no point in continuing the test case because there are no
conclusions that can be drawn without the premises. Whereas, the
expectation is the thing you are trying to prove.

I recall discussion on this. What's the point in keeping thie
BUG() around when it doesn't even reach? It can even be a
WARN_ON() in that case right?
