Parse errors are difficult to read

See original GitHub issue

We should be able to do better:

scala> HttpVersion.fromString("blech")
res1: org.http4s.ParseResult[org.http4s.HttpVersion] = Left(org.http4s.ParseFailure: HTTP version: Error(0,NonEmptyList(OneOfStr(0,List(HTTP/)))))

It would be nice to have a prettier rendering, but for programming language applications you probably want to control that.

I would make sure you look at LocationMap which at least will compute line/col for you, and can fetch lines so you can show a context to users.
