Cortex-M3: improved core exception handling

This updates three aspects of debugger/exception interactions:

 - Save the user's "vector_catch" setting, and restore it after reset.
   Previously, it was obliterated (rather annoyingly) each time.

 - Don't catch BusFault and HardFault exceptions unless the user says
   to do so.  Target firmware may need to handle them.

 - Don't modify SHCSR to prevent escalating BusFault to HardFault.
   Target firmware may expect to handle it as a HardFault.

Those simplifications fix several bugs.  In one annoying case, OpenOCD
would cause the target to lock up on ome faults which triggered after
the debugger disconnected.

NOTE:  a known remaining issue is that OpenOCD can still leave DEMCR
set after an otherwise-clean OpenOCD shutdown.
