[Tarantool-patches] [PATCH v3] error: add __concat method to error object

From: Oleg Babin <babinoleg at mail.ru>

Usually functions return pair {nil, err} and expected that err is string.
Let's make the behaviour of error object closer to string
and define __concat metamethod.

Closes #4489

The case of error "error_mt.__concat(): neither of args is an error"
is not covered by tests because of #4723
---
Changes in v3:
  - Improve concatenation logic
  - Add more test cases
Changes in v2:
  - Added tests

Issue: https://github.com/tarantool/tarantool/issues/4489
Branch: olegrok/4489-concat-for-errors
