classify migrated chat group errors with matchXrpcError

The lex client throws XrpcResponseError, which is not an XRPCError
subclass, so the per-method error classes generated by @atproto/api no
longer match. Those instanceof checks compile fine but silently stop
firing, degrading every typed group failure to the generic fallback
message. Narrow against the method schema instead.
