Refactor message construction of ActionExecutionException

Note to Reviewer: Start your review looking at ActionExecutionException.java to see what this change is all about.

The constructor of ActionExecutionException always appends cause.getMessage() to it's own message whenever a cause is available. This behavior is unexpected by a caller and in practice often leads to clunky error messages. I found especially the pattern of new ActionExecutionException(cause.getMessage(), cause) to frequently and unintentionally lead to the duplication of error messages.

This change refactors ActionExecutionException to NOT automatically append cause.getMessage() to it's own message and also fixes relevant callsites to manually append cause.getMessage(). It does not fix the callsites that already call new ActionExecutionException(message, cause.getMessage()) where message.equals(cause.getMessage)) is true. So these callsites unfortunately won't show up as part of this change.
