Currently, anything passed as the block argument to throws()
and doesNotThrow() is interpreted as a function, which can
lead to unexpected results. This commit checks the type of
block, and throws a TypeError if it is not a function.

Ensure that the behavior of `assert.deepEqual` does not depend on
argument ordering when comparing an `arguments` object with a
non-`arguments` object.
4716dc6 made assert.equal() and related functions work better by
generating a better toString() from the expected, actual, and operator
values passed to fail(). Unfortunately, this was accomplished by putting
the generated message into the error's `name` property. When you passed
in a custom error message, the error would put the custom error into
`name` *and* `message`, resulting in helpful string representations like
"AssertionError: Oh no: Oh no".
This commit resolves that issue by storing the generated message in the
`message` property while leaving the error's name alone and adding
a regression test so that this doesn't pop back up later.
Closes#5292.
