non-throwing CHECK

[lightmare]

I'm looking for a variant of CHECK(expr) that doesn't abort if expr throws an exception.

For example:

TEST_CASE("string access")
{
    std::string s("foo");
    CHECK(s.at(3) == 'o'); // throws
    CHECK(s.at(2) == 'o'); // ok
    CHECK(s.at(1) == 'f'); // fails
}

With CHECK only the first (throwing) one is reported, because Catch::ResultDisposition::Normal is used here. What I'd like to see in the output is:

s.at(3) == 'o' FAILED with exception
s.at(1) == 'f' FAILED with 'o' == 'f'

I implemented that by copy&pasting INTERNAL_CATCH_TEST and using resultDisposition in the catch clause (ref). I'm not comfortable with the name, should be something like NORETHROW_CHECK or NOABORT_CHECK or perhaps default behaviour of CHECK?

Honestly, this seems like a bug in the internal macro, I can't see a reason not to continue on exception when CHECKing.
