feat: handle err.cause & err.stack

This is a replacement for #49.
I just pulled out the specific change related to this issue and added it here.

Closes: expressjs/express#5630

test: Error w/ cause case

fix: recursively find Error.cause stacks

Remove the error.stack logic as it is redundant

test: check for both 1 level & 2 level Error.cause

refactor: use native util.format() API for Error printing

fix: put back original lines of code

test: update tests to be less brittle
