UnknownBlock
error via ApiError
In [certain cases](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot/issues/5885) a runtime api is called for an unknown block. For example a block which is already pruned or on an abandon fork. In such cases the correct error is returned but it is wrapped in `ApiError::Application` and the only way to figure out what is the problem is to inspect the actual message in the error. In polkadot for example this usually happens when the runtime api version is being queried. It's beneficial to be able to clearly separate such errors so i that when they occur the client side can handle them more gracefully. E.g. log less stressful error message than `State already discarded for BlockId` or cancel any pending work related on this block.
