Description
It would be nice to be able to access the error descriptions as &'static str via the now private Error::description_str, especially because std::error::Error::description is deprecated.

Research direction
Start by locating the private Error::description_str method and inspect how its returned error descriptions are used. Expose access to the descriptions as &'static str while accounting for the deprecated std::error::Error::description API; done means callers can access the static text through the Error API.
