Add a delimiter between the two chains in svn_error_compose_create().

Note that this patch just adds the _("Additional errors:") when using svn_error_compose_create() while in many cases we just pass err to svn_error_createf(), even though it isn't really an error cause.
(Some examples are closing files, resetting sqlite statements, etc.)

I don't think we should apply this change as it just changes the expectations of users.

In some cases the second error might even be the root cause. (I usually position the most important error first, but that doesn't make it the root cause)
