Added description of the ApiTelegramException as attribute of the class

[barbax7]

The class ApiTelegramException now has the attribute "description", returned in the response_json. In this way, the error's description is more accessible.

What is the purpose of this? Why can't you catch error by try/except:

try:
    some code

except Exception as e:

    #catch

And this.

It's better to use:

from telebot.apihelper import ApiTelegramException

try:
    some code
except ApiTelegramException as e:
    if e.description == 'Forbidden: bot was blocked by the user.':
        do something

It's always better to use specific exceptions
pyTelegramBotApi provides that exceptions (when an error occures it raises ApiTelegramException or other) so qhy not use them in a better way?

the .venv in .gitignore is just for those people like me who create a virtual environment named ".vemv"

[coder2020official]

try:
    some code

except Exception as e:
    if e == 'Forbidden: bot was blocked by the user.':
        #some stuff

They are exactly same thing. No need to add it I think

[barbax7]

No, e is an object, it isn't a string
And, Exception is too general, it could be InsexError, MathError, ApiTelegramException.... too many exception

and, ApiTelegramException already exists, i use it in my codes. I just added an attribute to be more accessible. I haven't created the whole exception

python won't work properly without exceptions different to the general Exception

Ok, new feature won't be bad 😃
