Known RPC errors

This request can cause 5 known errors:

`ChatIdInvalidError`	Invalid object ID for a chat. Make sure to pass the right types, for instance making sure that the request is designed for chats (not channels/megagroups) or otherwise look for a different one more suited\nAn example working with a megagroup and AddChatUserRequest, it will fail because megagroups are channels. Use InviteToChannelRequest instead.
`InputConstructorInvalidError`	The provided constructor is invalid.
`InputFetchFailError`	Failed deserializing TL payload.
`PeerIdInvalidError`	An invalid Peer was used. Make sure to pass the right peer type and that the value is valid (for instance, bots cannot start conversations).
`PhotoExtInvalidError`	The extension of the photo is invalid.

You can import these from telethon.errors.
