Attached patch patchSplinter Review

Bug 1448431 prevents the debugger from pausing on exceptions thrown while doing client evaluations from the console or watched expressions, but in doing so we are also unable to pause in all evaluated frames, including those entirely local to the debuggee. Also see the associated URL for how this can lead to weird debugger behavior.

The attached patch fixes this by changing the mechanism added by bug 1448431. Instead of ignoring exceptions thrown by scripts missing URLs (including both client and debuggee eval scripts), we set a flag on the thread actor while doing a client evaluation which causes it to ignore all exceptions.
