0x29a cf1a7c616a refactor: remove error_descriptor_class and NonStaffErrorBlock
It's safe to remove this because non-staff [1] users cannot access [2]
an `ErrorBlock`. We were able to reproduce this with and without this commit
with the following results:
1. Staff users were seeing the `ErrorBlock`.
2. Non-staff users were getting an empty `<div class="vert-mod"></div>`.

In theory, error blocks should be hidden in the Learning MFE because of this
option [3]. However, when we manually set `hide_access_error_blocks` to
`False`, we kept getting identical results (with and without this commit), so
it looks that the removal `NonStaffErrorBlock` was just omitted at some point.

CMS
===

This directory contains code relating to the Open edX Content Management System ("CMS"). It allows learning content to be created, edited, versioned, and eventually published to the `Open edX Learning Mangement System <../lms>`_ ("LMS"). The main user-facing application that CMS powers is the `Open edX Studio <https://edx.readthedocs.io/projects/open-edx-building-and-running-a-course/en/latest/getting_started/CA_get_started_Studio.html#>`_
