[doc]Update String Error documentation in Programmer Manual

A while back, createStringError was added to provide easier construction
of StringError instances, especially with formatting options. Prior to
this patch, that the documentation only mentions the standard method of
using it. Since createStringError is slightly shorter to type, and also
provides the formatting options, this patch updates the Programmer's
Manual to use the new function in its examples, and to mention the
printf formatting options. It also fixes a small typo in one of the
examples and removes the unnecessary make_error_code call.
