The addition of assert functions to Userland/js
was done before we had load(..) implemented. Now
that it exists, it seems like the right move the
test helper functions to pure javascript instead
of poluting js with random global functions.
We were interpreting "undefined" as a variable lookup failure in some
cases and throwing a ReferenceError exception instead of treating it
as the valid value "undefined".
This patch wraps the result of variable lookup in Optional<>, which
allows us to only throw ReferenceError when lookup actually fails.
