Print the value in error: cannot coerce messages (#9553)

Browse source 
* Print the value in `error: cannot coerce` messages

This extends the `error: cannot coerce a TYPE to a string` message
to print the value that could not be coerced. This helps with debugging
by making it easier to track down where the value is being produced
from, especially in errors with deep or unhelpful stack traces.
