 Description   

The shell should have symbolic constants for the error codes defined in mongo/base/error_codes.py. A good way would be for gen_error_codes.py or a sister script to generate a .js file that instantiated an object at global scope, called ErrorCodes or perhaps Mongo.ErrorCodes. ErrorCodes would look like:

{ OK: 0, ... Unauthorized: 13, ... }

We could even attach a method for stringifying numeric codes, which could be used to improve reporting in the shell.

Submitted a preliminary code review. Abstracted C++ generator code to allow easier extensibility of error code generator to other languages.
