> {{TestOptions}}, {{SerializableMatchers}}, and {{PAssert}} have compile-time dependencies on hamcrest. We scope it {{provided}} to avoid having it on the classpath at runtime.
> This has lots of pain points, but one that recently bit the Spark runner is that when {{TestOptions}} or any subinterface is registered, we gain a runtime dependency on Hamcest. So users of the Spark runner all had to provide it, even outside of testing.
> We should just simplify this to either not have this dependency (perhaps via some hacking to make shading possibly) or declare the dependency.
