Reworked closureiter transformation.
- Convolutedly nested finallies should cause no problems now.
- CurrentException state now follows nim runtime rules (pushes and pops
appropriately), and mimics normal code, which is somewhat buggy, see
#25031
- Previously state optimization (removing empty states or extra jumps)
missed some opportunities, I've reimplemented it to do everything
possible to optimize the states. At this point any extra states or jumps
should be considered a bug.
The resulting codegen (compiled binaries) is also slightly smaller.
**BUT:**
- I had to change C++ reraising logic, see expt.nim. Because with
closure iters `currentException` is not always in sync with C++'s notion
of current exception. From my tests and understanding of C++ runtime
there should not be any problems, but I'm only 99% sure :)
- I've reused `nfNoRewrite` flag in one specific case during the
transformation. This flag is also used in term-rewriting logic. Again,
99% sure, these 2 scenarios will never intersect.

It inserts defect handing into a bare except branch
```nim
try:
raiseAssert "test"
except:
echo "nope"
```
=>
```nim
try:
raiseAssert "test"
except:
# New behaviov, now well-defined: **never** catches the assert, regardless of panic mode
raiseDefect()
echo "nope"
```
In this way, `except` still catches foreign exceptions, but panics on
`Defect`. Probably when Nim has `except {.foreign.}`, we can extend
`raiseDefect` to foreign exceptions as well. That's supposed to be a
small use case anyway.
`--legacy:noPanicOnExcept` is provided for a transition period.

* Error -> Defect for defects
The distinction between Error and Defect is subjective,
context-dependent and somewhat arbitrary, so when looking at an
exception, it's hard to guess what it is - this happens often when
looking at a `raises` list _without_ opening the corresponding
definition and digging through layers of inheritance.
With the help of a little consistency in naming, it's at least possible
to start disentangling the two error types and the standard lib can set
a good example here.
* add unsetControlCHook to remove a Ctrl-C hook after it was set
Adds the inverse proc to setControlCHook in order to lift a Ctrl-C
hook after it has been set.
* remove check for noSignalHandler in system/excpt.nim
