Improve error message when cluster has not been configured

See original GitHub issue

I tried to build the containers sample in examples and hadn’t set up the cluster.

$ pulumi preview

error: An error occurred while advancing the preview: an unhandled error occurred: Program exited with non-zero exit code: 1

Should instead show something like:

Cannot create ‘Service’ at index.ts:7. Missing cluster config ‘cloud-aws:config:ecsClusterARN’

Strawman answer to my own question:

We should use pulumi.RunError for any any exception that indicates the user made a mistake. We should not use it in cases where there is an implementation bug that leads to a failure. Akin to 4xx vs. 5xx distinction in HTTP.

Does that sound right? This is another thing we should add to a “Pulumi API Design Guidelines” doc.

How should we in general decide when to use that vs. not? Is there a reason not to always use it?
