Separate handled-exception state from raised-exception state.

PyErr_SetHandledException calls vm.set_exception, which replaces the last entry in the VM's shared exception stack. take_raised_exception consumes that same entry, while topmost_exception() can return an older non-empty entry. Setting the handled exception, including setting it to NULL, can therefore alter the pending raised exception or expose an older exception.

Move this separation into the VM and use a VM operation for updating the handled-exception entry instead of vm.set_exception.

Review comment at @crates/capi/src/pyerrors.rs around lines 489 - 498:
Update PyErr_SetHandledException to use a VM operation that sets or clears the
handled-exception entry independently of the shared raised-exception stack;
implement that separation in the VM so this call cannot replace a pending raised
exception or expose an older one.
