Description
Currently, both assertRaisesMessage and assertWarnsMessage accept a string for expected_message.
I think it would be good to accept a string or a list of string as expected_message.
It would be useful when we want to test the existence of multiple strings in the error message.

I don't see a wide usage, TBH. If you want to check multiple parts of a single message you can always use
assertWarnsRegex()orassertRaisesRegex(). I would prefer to keep these assertions straightforward.
