std::make_exception_ptr calls std::__GetExceptionInfo in order to figure
out how to properly copy the exception object.

A nullptr exception object can be caught by any pointer type catch
handler. However, it is not possible to express this in the exception
info for the MS ABI. As a middle ground, allow such exception objects
to be caught with pointer-to-void catch handlers.

This adds support for copy-constructor closures. These are generated
when the C++ runtime has to call a copy-constructor with a particular
calling convention or with default arguments substituted in to the call.
Because the runtime has no mechanism to call the function with a
different calling convention or know-how to evaluate the default
arguments at run-time, we create a thunk which will do all the
appropriate work and package it in a way the runtime can use.

Because the catchable type has a reference to its name, mangle the
location to ensure that two catchable types with different locations are
distinct.

Find all unambiguous public classes of the exception object's class type
and reference all of their copy constructors. Yes, this is not
conforming but it is necessary in order to implement their ABI. This is
because the copy constructor is actually referenced by the metadata
describing which catch handlers are eligible to handle the exception
object.
N.B. This doesn't yet handle the copy constructor closure case yet,
that work is ongoing.

Throwing a C++ exception, under the MS ABI, is implemented using three
components:
- ThrowInfo structure which contains information like CV qualifiers,
what destructor to call and a pointer to the CatchableTypeArray.
- In a significant departure from the Itanium ABI, copying by-value
occurs in the runtime and not at the catch site. This means we need
to enumerate all possible types that this exception could be caught as
and encode the necessary information to convert from the exception
object's type to the catch handler's type. This includes complicated
derived to base conversions and the execution of copy-constructors.
N.B. This implementation doesn't support the execution of a
copy-constructor from within the runtime for now. Adding support for
that functionality is quite difficult due to things like default
argument expressions which may evaluate arbitrary code hiding in the
copy-constructor's parameters.
