…st_throws (#56231) Fix #54082 Arguably this was a breaking change (as a consequence of #51979). But regardless, it seems like useful functionality to have a public API for testing that an `UndefVarError` was thrown for the expected variable name (regardless of scope). This is particularly useful if you don't know what the scope is (for example, in my use-case i want to test that a specific `UndefVarError` is thrown from a module with a `gensym`'d name). Pre-v1.11 the syntax for this was ```julia @test_throws UndefVarError(:x) foo() ``` but that stopped working in v1.11 when `UndefVarError` got a second field (in fact in v1.11.1 this is an error when before it would pass) This PR restores that functionality. We might want to backport it to v1.11.x so that v1.11 isn't the only version that doesn't support this. (cherry picked from commit b0c1525)
