Error Constants: EPascalCase with #[error]

Error constants MUST use PascalCase with an E prefix. Do NOT use SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE.

Use the #[error] attribute to attach human-readable messages to error constants. When an abort occurs, the message is included in the error output, making debugging much easier for users and support.
