RFR: 8287397 : Print top-level exception when snippet fails to read file

When using a snippet as follows (on Windows): `{@snippet file=baz\Baz.java }`, javadoc prints the error:
src\foo\foo\Foo.java:14: error: Error reading file: baz\Baz.java
{@snippet file=baz\Baz.java }
^
(null)
which is unhelpful. So rather than printing the exception's cause (which is `null` in the example above), it seems better to print the top-level exception itself.
PS: I'll need help from someone to create a JBS issue & sponsor this PR
