bitcoin-cli: Make error message less confusing
Sorry for the churn on this, but the current message (introduced in #9073) isn't acceptable: $ src/bitcoin-cli getinfo rpc: couldn't connect to server (make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port: -1 unknown) Putting the error code after the words "RPC port" made me wonder whether there was a port configuration issue. This changes it to: $ src/bitcoin-cli getinfo error: couldn't connect to server: unknown (code -1) (make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port)
