Return std::exception base-class object.

Use this to get at the exception's what() function, or to downcast to a more specific type using dynamic_cast.

Casting directly from pqxx_exception to a specific exception type is not likely to work since pqxx_exception is not (and could not safely be) derived from std::exception.

For example, to test dynamically whether an exception is an sql_error:

try
{
  // ...
}
catch (const pqxx::pqxx_exception &e)
{
  std::cerr << e.base().what() << std::endl;
  const pqxx::sql_error *s=dynamic_cast<const pqxx::sql_error*>(&e.base());
  if (s) std::cerr << "Query was: " << s->query() << std::endl;
}

Implements pqxx::pqxx_exception.
