Remove binding of captured exceptions when not used to reduce the chances of creating cycles (GH-17246)

Browse source 
Capturing exceptions into names can lead to reference cycles though the __traceback__ attribute of the exceptions in some obscure cases that have been reported previously and fixed individually. As these variables are not used anyway, we can remove the binding to reduce the chances of creating reference cycles.

See for example GH-13135
