BREAKING CHANGE: This changes the `name` property of a small number of error responses that we return. The property would have been `TypeError`, but is now `ValidationError` instead. It's a grey area, but I'd rather be strict.
---
This change removes uses of the `TypeError` type from user-facing code.
Type errors are used by typescript when you provide it the wrong type.
This is a valid concern. However, in the API, they're usually a signal
that **we've** done something wrong rather than the user having done
something wrong. As such, it makes more sense to return them as
validation errors or bad request errors.
## Breaking changes
Note that because of the way we handle errors, some of these changes
will be made visible to the end user, but only in the response body.
```ts
{ "name": "TypeError", "message": "Something is wrong", "isJoi": true }
```
will become
```ts
{ "name": "ValidationError", "message": "Something is wrong", "isJoi": true }
```
Technically, this could be considered a breaking change. However, as
we're gearing up for v5, this might be a good time to merge that?
## A return to 500
This PR also makes TypeErrors a 500-type error again because they should
never be caused by invalid data provided by the user
