b5a19c1036 Rework the way we handle the fact that the ARM simulator uses a
separate JS stack.

In exception handling, we need to be able to compare addresses into
the JavaScript portion of the stack with the address of a C++ handler
on the stack.  Since the stacks are separate on the simulator, we need
a JavaScript stack address corresponding to a C++ try catch handler in
order to perform valid address comparisons.

On the simulator, we now link the C++ try catch handlers indirectly
through the JS stack and use the JS stack indirection address for
comparisons.

      JS                    C++
                           
                           handler
 [C++ address]   <------    next_
                \
                 \
                  \---->   handler
 [C++ address]   <------    next_


On actual hardware the C++ try catch handlers continue to be directly
linked.
