Recognize _except as an SEH handler when Microsoft compatibility is enabled, 
matching the existing _try, _finally and _leave aliases. Keep _except usable as 
an ordinary identifier outside the handler position.

Add C and C++ parser coverage for mixed spellings, malformed handlers, ordinary 
identifier uses and rejection without Microsoft compatibility.

Subject: [PATCH] [Clang][Parser] Accept contextual _except in MS compatibility
 mode

Recognize _except as an SEH handler when Microsoft compatibility is enabled, 
matching the existing _try, _finally and _leave aliases. Keep _except usable as 
an ordinary identifier outside the handler position.

Add C and C++ parser coverage for mixed spellings, malformed handlers, ordinary 
identifier uses and rejection without Microsoft compatibility.
