summary:
  Add the command line to the AssertionError raised by test.script_helper's
Python subprocess failure assertion error messages for easier debugging.

Adds a unittest for test.script_helper to confirm that this code works as
it is otherwise uncovered by an already passing test suite that uses it. :)
