Title:
  PopupUtils/PageStack difficult to troubleshoot error when a component
  can't be created

Status in Ubuntu UI Toolkit:
  Confirmed
Status in “ubuntu-ui-toolkit” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When PopupUtils or PageStack is passed a component which has an error
  in it, all that is shown is

  QQmlComponent: Component is not ready
  PopupUtils.open(): Failed to create the popup object.

  This isn't very helpful and makes it hard for the developer to
  troubleshoot the problem. Component provides a errorString() method
  that provides more details about why the object could not be created.
  Could this be used in PopUtils and PageStack to provide more details
  to the developer?
