New helper ApiTestCase::setExpectedApiException()

This allows setting the expected exception message by the message key,
not text, so it remains correct if the message is updated.  This
function could be defined to work with other exception types too, but it
seems useful to have shortcuts for common types like ApiUsageException
or MWException.
