Instead of allowing ToWebAssemblyValue to throw a TypeError, explicitly catch any exceptions and throw a WebAssembly.LinkError.

I wonder if we should be specific to TypeError here. If there is any chance that TWAV could throw another exception (now or in the future), should that also become a LinkError? (Probably not.)

I think it could make sense to be specific to TypeError, so I pushed that change. I think in practice it shouldn't be possible for TWAV to throw other exceptions at this particular call site currently.
For example, TWAV can throw a SyntaxError if BigInt conversion fails on a string but it should be guarded by the conditions here. But that property isn't immediately apparent either.
