error: make HintException a mix-in class not derived from BaseException (API)

HintException is unrelated to the hierarchy of errors. It is an implementation
detail whether a class inherits from HintException or not, a sort of "private
inheritance" in C++.

New Hint isn't an exception class, which prevents catching error by its type:

    try:
        dosomething()
    except error.Hint:
        pass

Unfortunately, this passes on PyPy 5.3.1, but not on Python 2, and raises more
detailed TypeError on Python 3.
