Better messaging when failing by type

[duvanmonsa]

Current behavior:

When you try to validate values if the type is not the same, the message is so confusing

Desired behavior:

It should say that the types are different! like

Steps to reproduce:

const amount = 2000;
cy.get('.input-class')
      .type(amount)
      .should('have.value', amount);

I thought we had fixed this before - and indeed we had fixed this within the Cypress Error printed below this message:

I feel like this message is printed from chai, but is editable. Here? @brian-mann? https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/blob/develop/packages/driver/src/cypress/chai_jquery.coffee#L116

This was fixed in 3.7.0 as part of this PR #5619. Please update to the current version of Cypress.
