Earlier `throw(Malformed|Unmappable)` methods were throwing `IAE` containing 
_extra diagnostics information_ and wrapping a `CCE` as a cause. After 
switching methods to throw `CCE`, which doesn't have a ctor accepting a 
`String` message, to retain this extra diagnostics information, I've added 
swapped their causal chain placement, and wrapped `IAE` with a `CCE` this time.

This played well with `CCE`-throwing methods, yet there are other `public` 
methods which did not have `throws CCE` in their footprint. For backward 
compatibility, in those spots, I've used `cce2iae` to obtain, again, a `IAE` 
wrapping the `CCE`, which matched the old behavior.
