Add an errdetail_internal() ereport auxiliary routine.

This function supports untranslated detail messages, in the same way that
errmsg_internal supports untranslated primary messages.  We've needed this
for some time IMO, but discussion of some cases in the SSI code provided
the impetus to actually add it.
