2021-10-07Modernize error handlingDaniel Schadt
This sprinkles in some thiserror and anyhow instead of the hand-rolled 'error_froms!' macros and the MainResult. The benefit of this is that we're hooking into an established ecosystem of error handling and we're saving a lot of effort in the hand-written Display and Error implementations. The reason for not sprinkling anyhow everywhere is because the retrieval/rendering part of kondou could be split off into a library at some point, in which case we want to have a proper KondouError type. However, the argument could be made that the current split of errors is not very good, especially because many of them boil down to the same inner errors (RenderError wrapping ApiError wrapping reqwest::Error), which keeps unnecessary information. Some future improvements may include 1.) Unifying those error enums into one bigger enum 2.) Attaching more context through anyhow in the application layer 3.) Properly define an API and split off the inner logic from the UI logic

2019-12-12remove quick_errorDaniel Schadt
quick_error used the deprecated Error::cause interface, therefore we want to use our own error enums with proper methods.
