Add --assert-config option

Motivation from Fedora:

When we updated tox from version 3 to 4, it no longer fails when here is no
suitable tox configuration found. This was a deliberate upstream choice.

Unfortunately, it means that packages that use %pyproject_buildrequires with -t
or -e now silently succeed if there is no tox configuration found.

I identified 95 packages that are affected by this.

     Use ``-`` for ``FILE`` to print to standard output.
     This option only exists with tox 4 and requires at least tox 4.22.
 
+``tox --assert-config``
+    Starting with tox 4, tox does not terminate when no configuration is found.
+    This option makes tox fail (raise an exception) when no configuration exists.
+    On tox 3, this option does nothing, but can be used.
+    This option can be combined with others.
+
 It is possible to use the three printing options together, as long as the ``FILE`` is different.
 
 Invoking ``tox`` without any of the above options should behave as regular ``tox`` invocation without this plugin.
