MM-30041: Return correct error message for user save (#16117)

* MM-30041: Return correct error message for user save

We were collapsing all types of user conflict into a single
error message. Fixed it by inspecting the field of the invalidError type
and returning the correct message.

```release-note
NONE
```

* Fix test errors

* Fix wrong message in test when comparing error messages
