Description:
Request the information located in perror to be added to the error messages in the error log if appropriate.  This will allow the user to have more information immediately for consideration, rather then forcing them to take the extra step of looking up what it means.

Example:
[ERROR] /usr/sbin/mysqld: File '/root/warmup.sql' not found (Errcode: 13)

Macintosh-6:~ me$ perror 13
OS error code 13: Permission denied

How to repeat:
na

Suggested fix:
Example:

[ERROR] /usr/sbin/mysqld: File '/root/bp_warmup.sql' > not found (Errcode: 13, Text: Permission denied)

Noted in 5.6.5 changelog.

Error messages that referred only to an error code now also include 
the corresponding error description.
