tests: raise a better error when patterns are wrongly formatted

It is fairly easy to make mistakes when merging conflict in the pattern file.
A common mistake is to forget adding an extra trailing comma changing the
length of the tuple.

We now detect such error and raise a better error message that helps to find
it.
