      When a type mismatch error occurs during decoding a struct or slice, the driver should return a typed error such that I can check specifically for that and do something with it different than other types of decode errors. 

      Something like

      type TypeMismatchError struct {
          Got bsontype.Type
          Expected bsontype.Type
      }
