event: improve output when eventhandler exec fails

- Name the event handler by its actual name, so the traceback shows it rather
  than 'tmpHandler'.
- Rather than immediately aborting when encountering an event handler error,
  display an error message and try to continue.
- Show a traceback for ordinary exceptions, skipping the first entry in the
  traceback, so it only shows the useful information.
- Show an error, but no traceback, for SystemExit with a code other than 0.
- For for SystemExit with a code of 0, simply continue silently.
