Add ability to customize error messages

Fixes #28

Add ability to customize error messages in CSRF protection middleware.

* Add `ErrorMessageID` enum to `asgi_csrf.py` for error message IDs.
* Modify `send_csrf_failed` function to accept an error message ID and a custom error message function.
* Update `asgi_csrf_decorator` function to accept a custom error message function.
* Update all calls to `send_csrf_failed` to pass the appropriate error message ID and custom error message function.
* Add tests in `test_asgi_csrf.py` to verify the custom error message functionality.
* Update `README.md` to document the new custom error message functionality and provide examples.

+## Customizing error messages
+
+You can customize the error messages produced by the CSRF protection middleware by providing a custom error message function. This function should accept an error message ID and return the corresponding error message.
+
+Here is an example of how to use the custom error message function:
+
+```python
+from asgi_csrf import asgi_csrf, ErrorMessageID
+
+def custom_error_message_function(message_id):
+    if message_id == ErrorMessageID.FORM_URLENCODED_MISMATCH:
+        return "Custom error message for form-urlencoded mismatch"
+    elif message_id == ErrorMessageID.MULTIPART_MISMATCH:
+        return "Custom error message for multipart mismatch"
+    elif message_id == ErrorMessageID.FILE_BEFORE_TOKEN:
+        return "Custom error message for file before token"
+    elif message_id == ErrorMessageID.UNKNOWN_CONTENT_TYPE:
+        return "Custom error message for unknown content type"
+    else:
+        return "Unknown error"
+
+app = asgi_csrf(
+    app,
+    signing_secret="secret-goes-here",
+    custom_error_message_function=custom_error_message_function
+)
+```
+
+In this example, the `custom_error_message_function` is defined to return custom error messages based on the error message ID. The `asgi_csrf` middleware is then configured to use this custom error message function by passing it as the `custom_error_message_function` parameter.
+
+The error message IDs are defined as an enum in the `asgi_csrf` module:
+
+```python
+from enum import Enum
+
+class ErrorMessageID(Enum):
+    FORM_URLENCODED_MISMATCH = 1
+    MULTIPART_MISMATCH = 2
+    FILE_BEFORE_TOKEN = 3
+    UNKNOWN_CONTENT_TYPE = 4
+```
+
+You can use these error message IDs to customize the error messages produced by the CSRF protection middleware.

+
+ASGI middleware for protecting against CSRF attacks
+
+## Installation
+
+    pip install asgi-csrf
+
+## Background
+
+See the [OWASP guide to Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF)](https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/csrf) and their [Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) Prevention Cheat Sheet](https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Cross-Site_Request_Forgery_Prevention_Cheat_Sheet.html).
+
+This middleware implements the [Double Submit Cookie pattern](https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Cross-Site_Request_Forgery_Prevention_Cheat_Sheet.html#double-submit-cookie), where a cookie is set that is then compared to a `csrftoken` hidden form field or a `x-csrftoken` HTTP header.
+
+## Usage
+
+Decorate your ASGI application like this:
+
+```python
+from asgi_csrf import asgi_csrf
+from .my_asgi_app import app
+
+
+app = asgi_csrf(app, signing_secret="secret-goes-here")
+```
+
+The middleware will set a `csrftoken` cookie, if one is missing. The value of that token will be made available to your ASGI application through the `scope["csrftoken"]` function.
+
+Your application code should include that value as a hidden form field in any POST forms:
+
+```html
+<form action="/login" method="POST">
+    ...
+    <input type="hidden" name="csrftoken" value="{{ request.scope.csrftoken() }}">
+</form>
+```
+
+Note that `request.scope["csrftoken"]()` is a function that returns a string. Calling that function also lets the middleware know that the cookie should be set by that page, if the user does not already have that cookie.
+
+If the cookie needs to be set, the middleware will add a `Vary: Cookie` header to the response to ensure it is not incorrectly cached by any CDNs or intermediary proxies.
+
+The middleware will return a 403 forbidden error for any POST requests that do not include the matching `csrftoken` - either in the POST data or in a `x-csrftoken` HTTP header (useful for JavaScript `fetch()` calls).
+
+The `signing_secret` is used to sign the tokens, to protect against subdomain vulnerabilities.
+
+If you do not pass in an explicit `signing_secret` parameter, the middleware will look for a `ASGI_CSRF_SECRET` environment variable.
+
+If it cannot find that environment variable, it will generate a random secret which will persist for the lifetime of the server.
+
+This means that if you do not configure a specific secret your user's `csrftoken` cookies will become invalid every time the server restarts! You should configure a secret.
+
+## Always setting the cookie if it is not already set
+
+By default this middleware only sets the `csrftoken` cookie if the user encounters a page that needs it - due to that page calling the `request.scope["csrftoken"]()` function, for example to populate a hidden field in a form.
+
+If you would like the middleware to set that cookie for any incoming request that does not already provide the cookie, you can use the `always_set_cookie=True` argument:
+
+```python
+app = asgi_csrf(app, signing_secret="secret-goes-here", always_set_cookie=True)
+```
+
+## Other cases that skip CSRF protection
+
+If the request includes an `Authorization: Bearer ...` header, commonly used by OAuth and JWT authentication, the request will not be required to include a CSRF token. This is because browsers cannot send those headers in a context that can be abused.
+
+If the request has no cookies at all it will be allowed through, since CSRF protection is only necessary for requests from authenticated users.
+
+### always_protect
+
+If you have paths that should always be protected even without cookies - your login form for example (to avoid [login CSRF](https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Cross-Site_Request_Forgery_Prevention_Cheat_Sheet.html#login-csrf) attacks) you can protect those paths by passing them as the ``always_protect`` parameter:
+
+```python
+app = asgi_csrf(
+    app,
+    signing_secret="secret-goes-here",
+    always_protect={"/login"}
+)
+```
+
+### skip_if_scope
+
+There may be situations in which you want to opt-out of CSRF protection even for authenticated POST requests - this is often the case for web APIs for example.
+
+The `skip_if_scope=` parameter can be used to provide a callback function which is passed an ASGI scope and returns `True` if CSRF protection should be skipped for that request.
+
+This example skips CSRF protection for any incoming request where the request path starts with `/api/`:
+
+```python
+def skip_api_paths(scope)
+    return scope["path"].startswith("/api/")
+
+app = asgi_csrf(
+    app,
+    signing_secret="secret-goes-here",
+    skip_if_scope=skip_api_paths
+)
+```
