This is a follow-up to D153672 which removed the old debug mode and moved many of those checks to the regular asserts mode.
The tree invariant check is too expensive for the regular asserts mode, making element removal O(n) instead of O(log n), so disable it until there is a new debug assert category it can be put in.
CC @var-const in case you want to annotate your TODOs for the debug mode in some special way to find them later.
