Profpatsch 2099ebdf59 lib: add asserts.assertEachOneOf
Along the lines of `assertOneOf`, but expects a list of values to be
compared. This gives a good error message and is useful for lists of
values, like `supportedGhcVersions` in the arguments of
`haskell-language-server`.

Intended to be used to augment asserts with helpful error messages.
Example:

stderr> error: foo is not bar, silly

of the list `xs`. Useful for checking enums.
