Problem/Motivation

In #3128573: [meta] Replace assertions with more appropriate ones we are modernising Drupal's test suite to remove Simpletest-isms and replace them with more PHPUnit assertions.

We can start going further by creating our own assertions for things that are commonly tested in Drupal. This will improve test readability and DX.

Proposed resolution

Add custom assertions to either test base classes or traits, as described at https://phpunit.readthedocs.io/en/9.0/extending-phpunit.html

Remaining tasks

Identify common things that we test for.
Figure out the best way of converting these to PHPUnit Constraint classes and where to put them in the Drupal namespace.
Create child issues to add the new assertions and convert existing uses.
