Rationalize error messages within jsonfuncs.c.
I noticed that the functions in jsonfuncs.c sometimes printed error messages that claimed I'd called some other function. Investigation showed that this was from repurposing code into "worker" functions without taking much care as to whether it would mention the right SQL-level function if it threw an error. Moreover, there was a weird mismash of messages that contained a fixed function name, messages that used %s for a function name, and messages that constructed a function name out of spare parts, like "json%s_populate_record" (which, quite aside from being ugly as sin, wasn't even sufficient to cover all the cases). This would put an undue burden on our long-suffering translators. Standardize on inserting the SQL function name with %s so as to reduce the number of translatable strings, and pass function names around as needed to make sure we can report the right one. Fix up some gratuitous variations in wording, too.
