fast-rebase: change assert() to BUG()
assert() can succinctly document expectations for the code, and do so in a way that may be useful to future folks trying to refactor the code and change basic assumptions; it allows them to more quickly find some places where their violations of previous assumptions trips things up. Unfortunately, assert() can surround a function call with important side-effects, which is a huge mistake since some users will compile with assertions disabled. I've had to debug such mistakes before in other codebases, so I should know better. Luckily, this was only in test code, but it's still very embarrassing. Change an assert() to an if (...) BUG (...).
