New Issue: [Feature Request]: Add UnitTest.assert* overloads with extra information

Summary of Feature

Description:
The UnitTest module currently provides a bunch of assert methods for writing unittests. For example, https://chapel-lang.org/docs/main/modules/packages/UnitTest.html#UnitTest.Test.assertEqual. However, if this assert fails very little information is printed.

I noticed that our default assert has an overload of assert(cond, args...) which prints the remaining args on on an assert failure. This is a nice quality of life improvement, and I think it would be good to add this to UnitTest as well
