Every error enum should have a conversion function to the canonical codes list. This can make client code more resilient to additions of error codes to per-function error enums, and simplify much of the error handling that currently needs to
switch()
over each error enum separately.It's still useful to have additional information from the per-function error enums to present the user with better error messages, but for programmatic error handling (e.g. bots), the canonical codes should always be sufficient context.
