1030714 - Clarify that unhandled rejections indicate an issue with the code

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Async Tooling, defect)

Description

[:Paolo Amadini]

Attachment: Mach-style error message

It seems that our reporting of unhandled rejections does not make it clear that there is problem with the code, and it may seem that they are the normal way to report rejections.

I tweaked the message to be more informative and, like mach errors, suggest solutions in the message itself. I also moved the hyperlink near the description.

See bug 911636 comment 32 for an example.
