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.
