Simplify "should throw"

[tpetricek]

Currently, you have to use ignore to discard the result in the function and you need to get type using typeof:

(fun () -> failwith "BOOM!" |> ignore) |> should throw typeof<System.Exception>

I think it would be neat if you could write just:

(fun () -> failwith "BOOM!") |> should throw<System.Exception>

@sergey-tihon Do you care about retro compatibility? (i.e. should I keep the old method and create a new one?). I am about to do this quick PR.

[sergey-tihon]

@Evangelink Yes we care about backward compatibility.
I think that we can support this feature in new FsUnit.Typed that is probably will be merged into FsUnit repo.

Ok cheers! I will have a look.

@sergey-tihon There is a shouldFail method line 36 (don't know how to link a portion of code) in your commit that already satisfy @tpetricek request.
(fun () -> failwith "BOOM!") |> shouldFail<exn>

Don't think it is worth doing a shouldThrow that will do the same thing (rename current method?). I can add a shouldFailWithMessage method that will also check the error message if wanted.
