    [wasm] Add support for 'except_ref' value type. · f19a7068
    Michael Starzinger authored
    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.
