test-lib: introduce test_line_count to measure files
Some tests check their output with code like the following:
test "$(git ls-files -u B | wc -l)" -eq 3 || {
echo "BAD: should have left stages for B"
return 1
}
The verbose failure condition is used because test, unlike
diff, does not print any useful information about the
nature of the failure when it fails.
Introduce a test_line_count function to help. If used like
git ls-files -u B >output &&
test_line_count -eq 3 output
it will produce output like
test_line_count: line count for output !-eq 3

100644 45b983be36b73c0788dc9cbcb76cbb80fc7bb057 3 hi.c
on failure.
