vm: fix callframe double free on unhanded exceptions
When invoking a native function as toplevel VM call which indirectly triggers an unhandled exception in managed code, the callframes are completely reset before the C function returns, leading to invalid memory accesses when `uc_vm_call_native()` subsequently popped it's own callframe again. This issue did not surface by executing script code through the interpreter since in this case the VM will always execute a managed code as toplevel call, but it could be triggered by invoking a native function triggering an exception through the C API using `uc_vm_call()` on a fresh `uc_vm_t` context or by utilizing the CLI interpreters `-l` flag to preload a native code library triggering an exception.
