catch_unwind doesn't catch non-C++ exceptions on wasm

I tried this code:

#[unsafe(no_mangle)]
pub fn square(num: i32) -> std::thread::Result<i32> {
    std::panic::catch_unwind(|| bar())
}

unsafe extern "C-unwind" {
    safe fn bar() -> i32;
}

compiled with -Cpanic=unwind --crate-type cdylib --target wasm32-wasip1 + -Zbuild-std.

I expected to see this happen: An exception originating from bar which doesn't conform with the wasm C++ exception ABI will cause an abort, just like foreign exceptions would on native platforms when unwinding through catch_unwind.

Instead, this happened: catch_unwind only generates a wasm catch instruction matching the C++ exception tag. For unwinding out of functions that are not allowed to unwind at all we do correctly generate a catch_all instruction to call panic_cannot_unwind.

(func $square (;2;) (type 0) (param i32 i32)
    (local i32 i32 i32)
    global.get $__stack_pointer
    i32.const 16
    i32.sub
    local.tee 2
    global.set $__stack_pointer
    block ;; label = @1
      try ;; label = @2
        call $bar
        local.set 3
      catch 0
        local.set 3
        local.get 2
        global.set $__stack_pointer
        try ;; label = @3
          local.get 2
          i32.const 8
          i32.add
          local.get 3
          call $_ZN3std9panicking12catch_unwind7cleanup17h1c165d98d6186f41E

    local.get 2

    i32.add

  )

rustc 1.92.0-nightly (695857bc3 2025-10-21)
binary: rustc
commit-hash: 695857bc3f72ec4f59c79f323460fe488c38a53f
commit-date: 2025-10-21
host: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
release: 1.92.0-nightly
LLVM version: 21.1.3

Reproduce the example with rustc nightly, -Cpanic=unwind, --crate-type cdylib, target wasm32-wasip1, and -Zbuild-std, then inspect the generated WebAssembly around catch_unwind and the shown catch instructions. Done means non-C++ exceptions from bar no longer pass through catch_unwind and instead follow the expected abort behavior.
