There is not really a good reason as to why one would have to jump
through a bunch of hoops to scrub this field. It is mostly equivalent to
$message in what it contains (to the point people confuse one with
another) and impacts grouping in similar ways. So it should be scrubbable
the same way.

The kickoff for this PR was when a customer attempted to configure
$error.** and failed.

The original concern with making this pii=true was that it would impact
grouping, but if anything, removing PII/variable data improves grouping.
This is more of a concern with the Default Scrubbers where the entire
value may be removed, which is why the field has been put on the
ignore-list for those.

I'm okay with this, although this will create new groups in some cases.

Please have a look at tests.
