some usages of sys.exc_info can be replaced by more modern code

[iritkatriel]

There are some obvious places where sys.exc_info() can be replaced by direct access to a captured exception (without needing any new features that could complicate backports.)

Need to avoid changing tests that are testing exc_info, like generator tests or sys.
