Revert "Introduce ExitType"
This reverts commit cb0e818f7cc2499d81ef143e5acaa00c6e684711.
After this was merged, some design and implementation issues were discovered,
see the discussion in #18782 and #19385. They certainly can be fixed, but so
far nobody has stepped up, and we're nearing a release. Hopefully, this feature
can be merged again after a rework.
Fixes #19345.
