We have not tested any of our modifications to CIL with MSVC, and afaik have no intention of adding support for MSVC to Goblint.

This PR removes all support for MSVC from CIL, allowing us to make some things less complex inside CIL.
It also allows us to remove the skinds associated with the proprietary Microsoft try/catch extension, which is not supported by Goblint. This will allow some simplifications in Goblint as well.

I feel it is better to remove all MSVC things than having them around without ever testing if they still work and having no intention of doing so in the future. WDYT?

This probably doesn't make too much of a difference for Goblint, since we already error on TryExcept/TryFinally during CFG construction.

But it's also true that we haven't ever tested or maintained this, so it's better to not pretend either.
