RFR: JDK-8302810: NMT gtests don't correctly check for marked ranges

We have the helper functions `GtestUtils::mark_range` and `GtestUtils::check_range`. One fills a range with a byte pattern, and the other checks that range.
The latter does not assert - it just returns a boolean value. But its name implies it does, in fact, assert (as similar check_... functions in hotspot).
It is used without ASSERT_TRUE or EXPECT_TRUE in several places, which makes these tests ignore errors. This caused https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8302811 to be hidden.
----
Patch adds the necessary assertions (EXPECT_, in this case, since its used in a non-void subfunction).
It also renames `GtestUtils::check_range` to `GtestUtils::is_range_checked`, which more clearly indicates that it returns a boolean value and won't assert on itself.
