MSQ: Nicer error when sortMerge join falls back to broadcast. (#16002)
* MSQ: Nicer error when sortMerge join falls back to broadcast.

In certain cases, joins run as broadcast even when the user hinted
that they wanted sortMerge. This happens when the sortMerge algorithm
is unable to process the join, because it isn't a direct comparison
between two fields on the LHS and RHS.

When this happens, the error message from BroadcastTablesTooLargeFault
is quite confusing, since it mentions that you should try sortMerge
to fix it. But the user may have already configured sortMerge.

This patch fixes it by having two error messages, based on whether
broadcast join was used as a primary selection or as a fallback selection.

* Style.

* Better message.
