This is for use in WICG/turtledove#538.

This was intended to be used internal to Web IDL only, which deals with some of the complexities surrounding ECMAScript vs. Web IDL exceptions. However, new specs (and indeed most of Web IDL itself, 3 instances aside) tend to just use "catch any exceptions", as explained in https://infra.spec.whatwg.org/#algorithm-control-flow .

So, I'd rather remove this term from the ecosystem, than encourage its spread.

FWIW, using Infra's "catch" works for me. FYI @domfarolino. Should we <dfn> that "catch"?
