TS.MADD does not return error, only empty object when TS is not created yet.

Description

When trying to MADD to timeseries that has not been created yet, Redis is supposed to return an error.

This can be demonstrated by running the command directly on the server.

ts.madd test 1687180293 1 test 1687180294 1

Returns this

1) "(Redis) ERR TSDB: the key is not a TSDB key"
2) "(Redis) ERR TSDB: the key is not a TSDB key"

an "array" of errors.

Doing the same via node-redis as follows:

 const testSamples = [
      {
        key: 'test',
        timestamp: 1687180293,
        value: 1,
      },
      {
        key: 'test',
        timestamp: 1687180294,
        value: 1,
      },
    ];
    const response = await redis.ts.mAdd(testSamples);
    logger.debug({ response });

results in an array of empty objects.

"response": [
        {},
        {}
    ]

No error thrown. It seems that the redis client is swallowing whatever error the server is returning.

Expected results:

A "thrown" error or at least including the error message returned by the server as the response.
