Fix RETHROW handler missing IS_INVALID_TAGINDEX check
The RETHROW opcode handler in the classic interpreter reads the exception_tag_index from the stack and directly uses it to index module->module->tags[] without checking IS_INVALID_TAGINDEX first. When CATCH_ALL catches a cross-module exception, it pushes INVALID_TAGINDEX (0xFFFFFFFF) onto the stack. If RETHROW then executes, it reads 0xFFFFFFFF and accesses tags[0xFFFFFFFF], causing a massive out-of-bounds read. The THROW handler at line 1744 properly checks IS_INVALID_TAGINDEX before accessing the tags array. Add the same check to the RETHROW handler: when IS_INVALID_TAGINDEX is true, skip the tags[] access and set cell_num_to_copy to 0, allowing the exception to propagate to CATCH_ALL handlers. Add unit tests verifying IS_INVALID_TAGINDEX detection and that RETHROW uses the same validation logic as THROW.
