Martin Atkins d96284f2e2 tfdiags: FormatErrorPrefixed
When presenting an error that may be a PathError, the error's path is
usually relative to some other value. If the caller is able to express
that value (or, more often, a reference to it) in HCL syntax then this
method will produce a complete expression in the error message,
concatenating any path information from the error to the end of the given
prefix string.
