  [WebAssembly] Fix unwind mismatches in new EH (#114361)

This fixes unwind mismatches for the new EH spec.

The main flow is similar to that of the legacy EH's unwind mismatch
fixing. The new EH shared `fixCallUnwindMismatches` and
`fixCatchUnwindMismatches` functions, which gather the range of
instructions we need to fix their unwind destination for, with the
legacy EH. But unlike the legacy EH that uses `try`-`delegate`s to fix
them, the new EH wrap those instructions with nested
`try_table`-`end_try_table`s that jump to a "trampoline" BB, where we
rethrow (using a `throw_ref`) the exception to the correct `try_table`.

For a simple example of a call unwind mismatch, suppose if `call foo`
should unwind to the outer `try_table` but is wrapped in another
`try_table` (not shown here):
```wast
try_table
  ...
  call foo    ;; Unwind mismatch. Should unwind to the outer try_table
  ...
end_try_table
```

Then we wrap the call with a new nested `try_table`-`end_try_table`, add
a `block` / `end_block` right inside the target `try_table`, and make
the nested `try_table` jump to it using a `catch_all_ref` clause, and
rethrow the exception using a `throw_ref`:
```wast
try_table
  block $l0 exnref
    ...
    try_table (catch_all_ref $l0)
      call foo
    end_try_table
    ...
  end_block             ;; Trampoline BB
  throw_ref
end_try_table
```

---

This fixes two existing bugs. These are not easy to test independently
without the unwind mismatch fixing. The first one is how we calculate
`ScopeTops`. Turns out, we should do it in the same way as in the legacy
EH even though there is no `end_try` at the end of `catch` block
anymore. `nested_try` in `cfg-stackify-eh.ll` tests this case.

The second bug is in `rewriteDepthImmediates`. `try_table`'s immediates
should be computed without the `try_table` itself, meaning
```wast
block
  try_table (catch ... 0)
  end_try_table
end_block
```
Here 0 should target not `end_try_table` but `end_block`. This bug
didn't crash the program because `placeTryTableMarker` generated only
the simple form of `try_table` that has a single catch clause and an
`end_block` follows right after the `end_try_table` in the same BB, so
jumping to an `end_try_table` is the same as jumping to the `end_block`.
But now we generate `catch` clauses with depths greater than 0 with when
fixing unwind mismatches, which uncovered this bug.

---

One case that needs a special treatment was when `end_loop` precedes an
`end_try_table` within a BB and this BB is a (true) unwind destination
when fixing unwind mismatches. In this case we need to split this
`end_loop` into a predecessor BB. This case is tested in
`unwind_mismatches_with_loop` in `cfg-stackify-eh.ll`.

---

`cfg-stackify-eh.ll` contains mostly the same set of tests with the
existing `cfg-stackify-eh-legacy.ll` with the updated FileCheck
expectations. As in `cfg-stackify-eh-legacy.ll`, the FileCheck lines
mostly only contain control flow instructions and calls for readability.
- `nested_try` and `unwind_mismatches_with_loop` are added to test newly
found bugs in the new EH.
- Some tests in `cfg-stackify-eh-legacy.ll` about the legacy-EH-specific
asepcts have not been added to `cfg-stackify-eh.ll`.
(`remove_unnecessary_instrs`, `remove_unnecessary_br`,
`fix_function_end_return_type_with_try_catch`, and
`branch_remapping_after_fixing_unwind_mismatches_0/1`)
