Fix try/catch catches more than it should jqlang#1859

Rename the FORK_OPT opcode to TRY_BEGIN, add a TRY_END opcode, and wrap
errors when raising through a TRY_END so that they will not be caught by
the matching TRY_BEGIN.

Now a `try exp catch handler` expression generates code like:

    TRY_BEGIN handler
    <exp>
    TRY_END
    JUMP past_handler
    handler: <handler>
    past_handler:
    ...

On backtrack through TRY_BEGIN it just backtracks.

If anything past the whole thing raises when <exp> produced a value,
then the TRY_END will catch the error, wrap it in another, and
backtrack.  The TRY_BEGIN will see a wrapped error and then it will
unwrap and re-raise the error.

If <exp> raises, then TRY_BEGIN will catch the error and jump to the
handler, but the TRY_BEGIN will not stack_save() in that case, so on
raise/backtrack the TRY_BEGIN will not execute again (nor will the
TRY_END).
