This adds experimental support for an 'except_ref' value type for caught
exceptions as per the exception handling proposal. In the current for it
is only allowed to have such types in the stack or in a local, support
for having it as part of any signature was left out.
The default value for a local of type 'except_ref' is the 'ref_null'
value for now. Since this value cannot escape a wasm function, the
concrete value is not actually observable.
