Change asserts in qsimcirq/qsim_simulator.py to raise errors instead (#1036)

Replace assert statements in qsimcirq/qsim_simulator.py with explicit if
checks that raise TypeError and ValueError. This ensures that validation
of qsim_state dtype and ndim is always performed, even when Python
optimizations are enabled.
