PartDesign: [skip ci] Improve revolution function

+ Fix hard crash when selecting an edge or face of the created feature before selecting option to choose a reference.
+ In ProfileBased::getAxis() convert OCCT into FreeCAD exception to simplify handling of calling instances.
+ Change return value of getReferencedSelection() from void to bool to mkae it easier for calling instance to detect if the selection failed.
  This is needed to avoid to add invalid items to the combo box of the revolution task panel
