    Remove 'if' from GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION
    
    This removes the embedded 'if' from GDB_PY_HANDLE_EXCEPTION and
    GDB_PY_SET_HANDLE_EXCEPTION.  I believe this 'if' was necessary with
    the old gdb try/catch macros, but it no longer is: these should only
    ever be called from a 'catch' block, where it's already known that an
    exception was thrown.
    
    Simon pointed out, though, that in a few spots, these were in facts
    called outside of 'catch' blocks.  This patch cleans up these spots.
    I also found one spot where a redundant 'return nullptr' could be
    removed.
