Alaister Young 45fc609471 [FE-3034] feat(studio): render multi-line SQL error HINTs (#45038)
Preserve `formattedError` through the `ResponseError` path and fall back
to splitting `error.message` on newlines so enhanced permission-denied
HINTs from supabase/postgres#2084 render as separate lines in the SQL
editor — users can actually read the GRANT example now.

**Context:** postgres#2084 adds a multi-line HINT to SQLSTATE 42501
errors, telling users exactly how to grant access per-table. Today the
SQL editor rendered the whole thing on one line because `formattedError`
was stripped by the fetchers' error handling and the `message` fallback
didn't split on `\n`. This PR fixes both.

Blocks [FE-3023](https://linear.app/supabase/issue/FE-3023) — the
project-creation toggle that flips default privileges; without readable
HINTs users land on RLS debugging rabbit holes when they hit a
permission denied.

**Changed:**
- `ResponseError` now carries an optional `formattedError` field;
`ConnectionTimeoutError` / `UnknownAPIResponseError` thread it through.
- `handleError` in `data/fetchers.ts` extracts `formattedError` from the
raw error body and forwards it to the thrown subclass.
- `UtilityTabResults.tsx` uses a new `getSqlErrorLines` helper — prefers
`formattedError`, falls back to splitting `message` on newlines when
it's multi-line (defense in depth since the exact field pg-meta
populates for the HINT depends on the path). Copy button now uses the
same lines.

**Added:**
- `getSqlErrorLines` pure helper + 9 unit tests.
- 5 new tests in `handleError.test.ts` covering `formattedError`
preservation on classified and unclassified errors.

## To test

1. Pull the branch, run `pnpm dev:studio`, open any project's SQL
editor.
2. Run a query that triggers the enhanced HINT (requires postgres#2084
deployed on the DB — currently staging-only). Example: `select * from
some_table_you_cant_read;` as a role without grants.
3. Expect the ERROR line, HINT line, and the `GRANT ...` example to each
render on their own `<pre>` line, plus the Copy button to copy the full
multi-line text.
4. Sanity check existing single-line errors (e.g. `select * from
nonexistent_table`) still render as `Error: relation "nonexistent_table"
does not exist` in the `<p>` fallback.
