[PATCH 1/2] selftests: cgroup: add values_close_assert helper

[Sebastian Chlad <sebastianchlad@gmail.com>]

Some cgroup selftests, such as test_cpu, occasionally fail by a very
small margin and if run in the CI context, it is useful to have detailed
diagnostic output to understand the deviation.

Introduce a values_close_assert() helper which performs the same
comparison as values_close(), but prints detailed information when the
values differ beyond the allowed tolerance.
