xapi-stdext-threads, test: use stable testing interface

Alcotest changed how match_raises to actually be reasonable instead of failing
when the mathing function returns true (note how is_oob expects a string with
two spaces)

This also highlights why matching strings in exception is a bad idea. Instead
raise a non-stringy exception and use polymorphic compare.
