I realize we lack documents that clearly describe the error codes. I'll
gladly accept contributions here. (There is some stuff said about them in the
curl.1 man page, as they are also the return codes the 'curl' tool returns.)

I've always hoped/aimed for that the error code names should be pretty
descriptive. I still think most of them are. Which of these errors do you not
understand?

All details are of course found in the code.
