3996	fix all instances of log.err() that take just a string as an argument.	jesstess		"log.err() is called with just one string all over the place even though the first parameter, _stuff, is type: NoneType?, Exception, or Failure according to the docs. Say the docs, _stuff ""will be wrapped in a Failure"". However:

{{{
#!python
from twisted.python import failure
failure.Failure(""Test"")
main__:1: DeprecationWarning?: Don't pass strings (like 'Test') to failure.Failure (replacing with a DefaultException?).
<twisted.python.failure.Failure <class 'twisted.python.failure.DefaultException?'>>
}}}

so to skirt the DeprecationWarning and future unwanted behavior something else needs to be done with the strings to these log.err instances."	defect	new	normal		core			jesstess thijs
