A warning is now issued when assertions are made for ``None``.
This is a common source of confusion among new users, which write:
.. code-block:: python
assert mocked_object.assert_called_with(3, 4, 5, key="value")
When they should write:
.. code-block:: python
mocked_object.assert_called_with(3, 4, 5, key="value")
Because the ``assert_called_with`` method of mock objects already executes an assertion.
This warning will not be issued when ``None`` is explicitly checked. An assertion like:
.. code-block:: python
assert variable is None
will not issue the warning.
