Modernize and improve BEF project import error handling

We have some error handling in place for failed project imports, but it doesn't work very well and it seems brittle. We need to re-visit how we can better handle failed imports.

@plaird Do you have some ideas in mind? I am running into this currently. I get an error reported for a random closed project in my workspace, which is not added properly to the Eclipse error log.

No I don't have anything specific in mind for this.

I just fixed a whole class of these errors in 1.5: importing a Bazel workspace, delete those projects, and import again. While doing that I made the error dialog popup a little better.

Did you get a nice error modal dialog for this case? Obviously the popup doesn't help if you are using the headless LS, only BEF.
