gdb: remove unneeded switch_to_thread from thr_try_catch_cmd
I spotted that every time thr_try_catch_cmd is called GDB has already switched to the required thread. The call to switch_to_thread at the head of thr_try_catch_cmd is therefore redundant. This commit replaces the call to switch_to_thread with an assertion that we already have the required thread selected. I also extended the header comment on thr_try_catch_cmd to make it clearer when this function could throw an exception. There should be no user visible changes after this commit. gdb/ChangeLog: * thread.c (thr_try_catch_cmd): Replace swith_to_thread with an assert. Extend the header comment.
