Error code is stripped when running execa

[Tallyb]

🐛 Bug Report

Running execa 4.0.0 with the following code results as follow:

const execa = require('execa');
(async () => {
	// Catching an error
	try {
		let res = (await execa('unknown', ['command']));
	} catch (error) {
		console.log(error);
/*
errno: 'ENOENT',
  code: 'ENOENT',
  syscall: 'spawn unknown',
  path: 'unknown',
  spawnargs: [ 'command' ],
  originalMessage: 'spawn unknown ENOENT',
  shortMessage: 'Command failed with ENOENT: unknown command\nspawn unknown ENOENT',
  command: 'unknown command',
  exitCode: undefined,
  signal: undefined,
  signalDescription: undefined,
  stdout: '',
  stderr: '',
  failed: true,
  timedOut: false,
  isCanceled: false,
  killed: false
  		*/
	}
})();

When running in jest the following code (execa@4 or execa@3):

it ('should have error', async () => {
    try {
        await execa.command('unknown command');
    } catch (e) {
        console.log(`e`);
        expect(e.code).toBeTruthy();
    }
  })
/* {
      "shortMessage": "Command failed with ENOENT: unknown command",
      "command": "unknown command",
      "stdout": "",
      "stderr": "",
      "failed": true,
      "timedOut": false,
      "isCanceled": false,
      "killed": false
    }*/

code and exitCode are missing.

Running the above test with [email protected] results the following:

{
      "command": "unknown command",
      "exitCode": 2,
      "exitCodeName": "ENOENT",
      "stdout": "",
      "stderr": "",
      "all": "",
      "failed": true,
      "timedOut": false,
      "isCanceled": false,
      "killed": false
    }

I am aware that there are breaking changes between 2 and 3 related to the code, but I am wondering if the exitCode (and code and errno) should remain or not.

It is hard to tell if this is a jest or execa issue.
It is also reported here: sindresorhus/execa#422

Without checking execa's source code, I assume they use instanceof Error somewhere in their code, and this is caused by #2549

@ehmicky is fixing it on execa: sindresorhus/execa#423
