Don't `rescue Exception` for retriable resources
Without this, sending an interrupt signal (hitting Ctrl+C) during a chef-client run that is currently executing a resources that has `retries` set will not interrupt the run, although the interrupt handler set up in Chef::Application calls Process.exit, which raises SystemExit. If the retryable resource is shelling out, the spawned process also gets the INT signal and will stop -- however, the chef-run would go on, merely noticing that the resource has failed and theres X-1 retries left. It is imaginable that users depend on some (whacky) Ruby script in a retriable resource that raises SystemExit, and they want this to _not_ stop the chef-run. So it's up for debate if we just want to merge this or make it configurable. In general, I'd like Ctrl+C to _stop my chef-run_, but this expectation could also be misled. When adapting tests to this change, it became apparent that for some reason the runner_spec.rb test didn't behave as expected. I've thus made those tests a little stricter by replacing some allows by expects. Signed-off-by: Stephan Renatus <srenatus@chef.io>
