Add a function to create a Decoder from an Error value #25

Description

@joshuakb2

Suggestion: Add a function (perhaps called error) that is like fail, except it receives an Error value instead of a String as its argument.

This would be useful in functions that have to call decodeValue inside an andThen continuation.

Here's an example of a case where such a function would be nice (I defined a sub-optimal version of error so it would compile):

Given that the Error type constructors are already exposed from this module, I don't see a good reason not to allow this sort of thing, but maybe there's a downside to this that I haven't considered.
