Thanks for the PR! This generally looks good, just some comments.
Move the test to api/testModule.pkl and reword the stdlib docs.

Fixes #1899.
test.catch()andtest.catchOrNull()applied the lambda but did not force its result, so a lazily failing value such asnew Listing { 1 } as Listing<String>did not throw inside the call.Both now force the returned value (
VmValue.force(result, false), the same forcing rendering does), so errors in its members are caught. The behavior is documented on both functions.In the
as3snippet test, twocatchOrNull(...) == nullresults change fromtruetofalse, because those values now throw when forced. I also added the example from the issue.I could not run the Gradle build locally (disk space), so CI will be the first full run of the language snippet tests.
