Eliminate catch_errors

Browse source 
If you want to use catch_errors with a function with parameters, then
currently you have to manually write a "capture" struct wrapping the
arguments and marshall/unmarshall that.

https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2017-09/msg00834.html proposed
adjusting catch_errors to use gdb::function_view, which would allow
passing lambdas with automatic captures.  However, it seems like using
TRY/CATCH directly instead ends up producing clearer and easier to
debug code.  This is what this commit does.

Note that removing catch_errors exposes further cleanup opportunities
around no longer having to follow catch_errors callback type, and also
removes a few cleanups.

I didn't do anything to save/restore current_uiout because I think
that should be the responsibility of the code that changes
current_uiout in the first place.

(Another approach could be to make catch_errors a variadic template
like:

  template<typename Function, typename... Args>
  int catch_errors (const char *errstring, return_mask mask,
		    Function &&func, Args... args);

and then with:

  extern void function_with_args (int, int);
  extern void function_with_no_args ();

calls to the above functions would be wrapped like this:

  catch_errors ("some error happened", RETURN_MASK_ERROR,
                function_with_args, arg1, arg2);

  catch_errors ("some error happened", RETURN_MASK_ERROR,
                function_with_no_args);

but I'm thinking that that doesn't improve much if at all either.)
