js: throw errors in sync functions

--

* synchronous functions should throw errors if something goes wrong,
  Promises should reject. This commit changes some error cases that
  returned Error objects instead of throwing them

  - src/Key.js: createKey() and sync Key.get() throw errors
  - src/Error.js: Exporting the list of errors to be able to test and
    compare against these strings
  - src/Keyring.js: Setting a null value in pattern is not useful, and
    now caused an error with the new changes.
  - src/Message.js: createMessage and Message.setParameter now throw
    errors
