ca1a093127 Add regression test: Don't assert(...) with side effects (practicalswift)
4c3c9c3869 Don't assert(...) with side effects (practicalswift)

Pull request description:

  Don't `assert(...)` with side effects.

  From the developer notes:

  > **Assertions should not have side-effects**
  >
  > Rationale: Even though the source code is set to refuse to compile with assertions disabled, having side-effects in assertions is unexpected and makes the code harder to understand

  These assertions were introduced quite recently (in #14069 which was merged two days ago) and since this is a recurring thing (see #13534 – "Don't assert(foo()) where foo() has side effects" from May) I added a simple regression test for the most obvious common side effect.
