This commit provides a safe, but unstable interface for the `try` functionality
of running a closure and determining whether it panicked or not.
There are two primary reasons that this function was previously marked `unsafe`:
1. A vanilla version of this function exposes the problem of exception safety by
allowing a bare try/catch in the language. It is not clear whether this
concern should be directly tied to `unsafe` in Rust at the API level. At this
time, however, the bounds on `ffi::try` require the closure to be both
`'static` and `Send` (mirroring those of `thread::spawn`). It may be possible
to relax the bounds in the future, but for now it's the level of safety that
we're willing to commit to.
2. Panicking while panicking will leak resources by not running destructors.
Because panicking is still controlled by the standard library, safeguards
remain in place to prevent this from happening.
The new API is now called `catch_panic` and is marked as `#[unstable]` for now.
