Compare the specified `exp` to the string result of calling `bsl::format` with the specified `format`, `value`, and `arg`, and return `true` if they match and `false` otherwise. If they do not match, load into the specified `message` a value describing the inputs and result of the failed test. Perform these tests for both `char`‐based and `wchar_t`‐based strings.
