Introducing ErrorCode

The objective of error code class to wrap an integer that may be
returned from a function that may fail for different reasons. Since we
are not able to return values different from 0 in case of error in the
arduino language we need to wrap them into this class and redefine
boolean operator to mantain the same behaviour
