expect.fail() and should.fail() are not documented

See original GitHub issue

expect.fail() and should.fail() have been added in version 2.1.0. Although they both have a docstring (docstring for expect and docstring for should), they cannot be found in the documentation. Their assert counterpart, however, can be found here.

That would be very useful for plugin developers 😃
