Make callback exception propagation test stricter

Propagating Python exceptions from callbacks through the C context back to the
original caller does not currently happen, is nontrivial/unsafe to implement,
and not desirable at this point any more as by now we have established the
current behaviour. So remove the catching of ZeroDivisionError in the tests.
