Azure-cosmos-dotnet-v2: DocumentClient should error out clearly for non-document endpoints

[ohadschn]

I have the following code:

var uri=new Uri("..."); //copied from the CosmosDB account Connection String pane of in the portal
var key = "..."; //copied from the CosmosDB account Connection String pane of in the portal
using (var client = new DocumentClient(uri, key))
{
    var db = client.CreateDatabaseAsync(new Database() {}).GetAwaiter().GetResult();
    Console.WriteLine(db);
}

I'm getting the following exception:

OK so the problem was that I was using the Azure Table endpoint (https://foo.table.cosmosdb.azure.com:443/) rather than the Document Endpoint (https://test-events.documents.azure.com:443/).

This is still an issue though, a better error message would have helped, and an Exception's ctor shouldn't throw another exception in any case...

Many thanks!
