[PATCH proxmox-backup v2] ui: encryption keys: show error text instead of empty popup in API alerts

Arthur Bied-Charreton

The errors returned by the encryption-keys and tape-encryption-keys
endpoints are not plain strings, so the alerts displayed on API2 errors
like failed permission checks end up being empty and therefore not very
helpful.

Extract the error messages to display them correctly in alerts.
