feat: nicer protocol error messages (#2742)

This patch:
- stops appending `undefined` to our protocol messages unnecessarily.
- rewrites `Cannot find execution context id` to `Execution context was destroyed, most likely because of a navigation.` when it occurs from a Puppeteer ExecutionContext. The error message is left alone if it occurs via a CDPSession.
