+/**
+ * Like `tap.prototype.match`. Verifies that `actual` satisfies the shape
+ * provided by `expected`.

+ * This may eventually make its way into `node:assert`. See

+ * }
+ * // true
+ * match(input, {
+ *   foo: 'foo is bar',

+ * match(input, {
+ *   foo: 'foo is bar',
+ *   bar: [1, 2, '3', 4]

+ *
+ * @param {string|object} actual The entity to verify.
+ * @param {string|object} expected What the entity should match against.
+ *
+ * @returns {boolean} `true` if `actual` satisfies `expected`. `false`
