hk-bind-exceptions! in eval.sx registers throwIO, throw, evaluate, catch,
try, handle, displayException. SomeException constructor pre-registered
in runtime.sx (arity 1, type SomeException).
throwIO and the existing error primitive both raise via SX `raise` with a
uniform "hk-error: msg" string. catch/try/handle parse it back into a
SomeException via hk-exception-of, which strips nested
'Unhandled exception: "..."' host wraps (CEK's host_error formatter) and
the "hk-error: " prefix.
catch and handle evaluate the handler outside the guard scope (build an
"ok"/"exn" outcome tag inside guard, then dispatch outside) so that a
re-throw from the handler propagates past this catch — matching Haskell
semantics rather than infinite-looping in the same guard.
14 unit tests in tests/exceptions.sx (catch success, catch error, try
Right/Left, handle, throwIO + catch/try, evaluate, nested catch, do-bind
through catch, branch on try result, IORef-mutating handler).
Conformance: safediv.hs (8/8) and trycatch.hs (8/8). Scoreboard now
285/285 tests, 36/36 programs.
