test: audit and clean up test suite

Delete tautological, no-assertion, and permanently-skipped tests.
Rewrite false-confidence tests that couldn't detect the bugs they
claimed to test. Decouple brittle assertions from error message
strings and third-party library output. Fix misleading test names
and error messages.
