errors sample

There is not a significant difference between  inspector messages spec and and JSON-RPC 2.0 messages spec.
Also JSON-RPC has a pretty clear specification for error descriptions which we haven't.
It was decided that we will use it.

the list of renames:

1) type-> /dev/null
2) domain + '.' + event => method // for events
3) domain + '.' + command => method // for requests
4) requestId => id // for responses

5) arguments => params // for requests
6) data => params // for events 
7) body => result // for responses

protocolErrors and error properties will be converted to JSON-RPC error format.
The order of properties in messages also will be adjusted.
The only thing that looks unnecessary is jsonrpc property.
