Description

Django Rest Framework has some helpful error handling features, effectively response middleware, that can be used within Pulp to help us implement a single mechanism for handling exceptions and returning meaningful errors to users when raising Exceptions, or when unhandled exceptions require a 500 response.

We should explore DRF's options for this and document a plan for handling exceptions in the API to prevent having multiple error-handling implementations in the project.
