[2.x] Add the ability to get the paddle error #248

Closed bensherred closed 9 months ago

The aim of this pull request to make it easier to get the paddle error response. The Cashier currently throws an exception when Paddle returns an error, but it only provides the error.detail.

There is also a $message variable which is set but never used. I've therefore updated the PaddleException to use that custom $message variable and added a method for getting the Paddle error response.

One of the main use cases behind this PR, is being able to get the validation messages and formatting them into a readable format for the user.
