8367949: JFR: MethodTrace double-counts methods that catch their own exceptions

[egahlin]

Could I have a review of a PR that changes how the instrumentation of the MethodTrace and MethodTiming events is implemented, so they handle exceptions in a better way?

For constructors, the current implementation is still used in certain corner cases. A proper implementation would require data-flow analysis, but for all practical purposes this code should work fine.

Testing: jdk/jdk/jfr

Thanks
Erik
