In 6bd26f58ea (t4014: use test_line_count() where possible, 2019-08-27),
we converted many test cases to take advantage of the test_line_count()
function. In one conversion, we inverted the expected and actual value
as tested by test_line_count(). Although functionally correct, if
format-patch ever produced incorrect output, the debugging output would
be a bunch of hashes which would be difficult to debug.

Invert the expected and actual values provided to test_line_count() so
that if format-patch produces incorrect output, the debugging output
will be a list of human-readable files instead.

Thanks for point out my mistake, Szeder. This patch can be applied to
the tip of 'dl/format-patch-doc-test-cleanup' and then we should base
Bert's changes on top of this branch.
