OK, how about this as an update to the patch. It corrects several
things:
1. For several error conditions, we would now print the sense twice
in slightly different ways, so unify the location of sense
printing.
2. I added more descriptions to actual failure conditions for
better debugging
3. according to spec, ABORTED_COMMAND is supposed to be retried
(except on DIF failure). Our old behaviour of erroring it looks
to be a bug.
4. I'd prefer not to default initialise the action variable because
that ensures that every leg of the error handler has an
associated action and the compiler will warn if someone later
accidentally misses one or removes one.
It also looks like
