Fix a regression introduced by #21982. CFG cleanup correctly removes an unreachable exception-handler block, but generated resume cleanup paths still reference its raw CPy_CatchError CallC result. This leaves malformed IR and causes a KeyError during reference count insertion. Keep the saved exception state in a register so it remains available across the generated control flow. Add regression coverage for compiling and running an async with statement with an empty body. I used coding agent assist.

Initially generate IR for generators and coroutines where locals and temporaries are stored in registers. Only spill registers that are live across a yield/await to the generator object. Previously most registers were stored in the generator object as attributes. The new spill is implemented as a new transform. We still use the old spill transform for op results that are not stored in registers.
This makes microbenchmarks where most work happens between awaits significantly faster, as C locals can be used for many operations instead of attributes. This also reduces the size of generator objects, as fewer struct fields are needed.
Remove old spill-related helpers from the IR builder as unnecessary.
