Description : errors with context, composition, and easy error checking
The errors package is an extension of and drop in replacement for the
standard library errors package. Multiple errors can be composed into a
single error with the Compose function, or a single error can be
extended by adding context using the Extend function. The result can be
checked for the presense of a specific error using Contains. If any of
the underlying composed or extended errors or extensions match,
Contains will return true.
.
This package is especially beneficial during testing, where you may wish
to check for presense of a specific error, but that specific error may
be extending another error or may have been extended by another function
somewhere else in the call stack.
