test: isolate unusual assert test in its own file

test-assert.js contains a test that writes to the source tree, requires
an internal module, and depends on modules not needed by the plethora of
other test cases in the file. Move it to its own file so that there are
not side effects in test-assert.js and so that it can be refactored to
not write to the source tree.
