Add a HINT for client-vs-server COPY failure cases.

Add a HINT for client-vs-server COPY failure cases.

Users often get confused between COPY and \copy and try to use client-side
paths with COPY. The server then cannot find the file (if remote), or sees
a permissions problem (if local), or some variant of that. Emit a hint
about this in the most common cases.

In future we might want to expand the set of errnos for which the hint
gets printed, but be conservative for now.
