Rollup merge of #143651 - Fulgen301:seh-exception-ptr, r=ChrisDenton

Win: Use exceptions with empty data for SEH panic exception copies instead of a new panic

For unwinding with SEH, we currently construct a C++ exception with the panic data. Being a regular C++ exception, it interacts with the C++ exception handling machinery and can be retrieved via `std::current_exception`, which needs to copy the exception. We can't support that, so we panic, which throws another exception, which the C++ runtime tries to copy and store into the exception_ptr, which panics again, which causes the C++ runtime to store a `bad_exception` instance.

However, this doesn't work because the panics thrown by the copy function will be dropped without being rethrown, and causes unnecessary log spam in stderr. Fix this by directly throwing an exception without data, which doesn't cause log spam and can be dropped without being rethrown.

Fixes rust-lang/rust#143623.

This also happens to be the solution ``@dpaoliello`` suggested, though I'm not sure how to handle the commit credit attribution.

Website | Getting started | Learn | Documentation | Contributing

This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.

Why Rust?

  • Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.

  • Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.

  • Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
