Description
WP_Ability::execute() currently replaces permission failures with a generic error message:
Ability "%s" does not have necessary permission.
For example, we enforce two-factor authentication for privileged users, but when a required 2FA check blocks an ability permission callback, the error message is very general and doesn't help the user understand why. It would be nice to be able to add a filter for the error message.

It would be nice to be able to customize the error message. Especially given that the permissions issue is dependent on 2FA.
