      Placeholder to make a decision about Coverity noexcept complaints.

      Coverity is creating tickets like SERVER-102196 because it sees throwing paths reaching noexcept boundaries, which will crash the server.

      But we've made a decision that this is acceptable as a safety measure similar to an invariant call. Coverity doesn't complain about invariant calls, so it possibly should not complain about such bug-catching noexcepts.
