CreateSecretStorageDialog: error handling

I'm fed up with setup operations in EW failing silently. Rather than leaving
the user with a mysteriously broken client, let's at least tell them that
something has gone wrong, so that they can report the issue and we can
investigate.

Obviously, showing an unactionable Error dialog is a last resort: ideally, we
should handle the error ourselves, or give the user actionable steps to resolve
the problem. But that takes significant design and engineering.

Just swallowing errors is the worst of all possible options.
