Description

Current stacktrace just append strings, which is not good to read.
Can oops have some structured stacktrace implementation like https://github.com/rotisserie/eris ?

    "root":{
      "message":"error internal server",
      "stack":[
        "main.main:/Users/roti/go/src/github.com/rotisserie/eris/examples/logging/example.go:143",
        "main.ProcessResource:/Users/roti/go/src/github.com/rotisserie/eris/examples/logging/example.go:85",
        "main.ProcessResource:/Users/roti/go/src/github.com/rotisserie/eris/examples/logging/example.go:82",
        "main.GetRelPath:/Users/roti/go/src/github.com/rotisserie/eris/examples/logging/example.go:61"
      ]
    },

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing stacktrace implementation in oops and compare its string-based output with the linked eris example, especially the example.go call-chain shape shown in the issue. Define the structured representation and verify that errors expose the requested root, message, and stack data without losing existing context.
