MgResourcesLoadFailedException needs greater context

Description

The MgResourcesLoadFailedException message needs to have greater context. The message is usually of the form: 

Failed to load Resources/mapguide_<locale>.res for locale '<locale>'

Which tells us nothing about why this exception was thrown. It could be:

  • File not found
  • Insufficent permission to access file
  • Something else?

This exception is a critical one as it is mostly thrown during web tier initialization. And if web tier initialization doesn't complete, most of the remaining MapGuide API is un-usable. So it is very important that this exception (if thrown) contains as much useful information as possible to diagnose the problem at hand.

Suggested test case to try triggering this:

  1. Call MgInitializeWebTier for the first time with a bad path to webconfig.ini
  2. Call MgInitializeWebTier this time with a good path to webconfig.ini
