Support for throw (...) in method mock generator macros

[GoogleCodeExporter]

An interface containing methods with throw() specifier is not possible to
mock. E.g. to mock the following:

   class IFoo {
   public:
     virtual void foo() throw (MyException);
   };

one would need macros like

   class MockFoo : public IFoo {
   public:
     MOCK_METHOD0_THROW(foo, void(), throw(MyException));
   };

I think MOCK_THROW_METHODx is a better name, analogous to MOCK_CONST_METHODx.

Probably not worth the complexity.

Note that throw spec has just been deprecated by the C++ standard committee.

Don't forget to provide the makro MOCK_CONST_THROW_METHODx

We decided not to support this:

- it's relatively rarely needed.
- throw spec has been deprecated by the C++ standard committe.
- we don't have enough resources to do it.
