Improve "Payment failed" error messages

For each of these card types: https://docs.stripe.com/testing#declined-payments and others on the page, we want to provide informative error messages instead of "We couldn't create the Stripe token. This is what happened: Error: Request to Cody Pro API failed: Bad Gateway".
