Feature Request: Expand fail #65

Description

@Emoun

Hi,

I want to ask whether you would consider implementing what trybuild essentially does, I.e. allowing us to check that a compilation fails with a given error message?

The reason I ask is that I'm in need of the functionality that trybuild provides, however it is missing essential features that macrotest has.
Most essential is the fact that it doesn't seem to panic upon wrong test results, which is a deal-breaker for me.
Also, features that have been implemented in macrotest are also missing (#41,#43).
Additionally, it seems silly to me that I would need to use two different crates for two functions that are so similar.

Essentially what I would need is expand_fail versions of expand and expand_without_refresh, that expects the expansion to fail and then checks the error message is as expected. If the expansion doesn't fail, or the error message is wrong, the test is a failure.
