Rollup merge of #38225 - Cobrand:patch-1, r=GuillaumeGomez

Update book/ffi to use catch_unwind

r? @GuillaumeGomez

The doc mentioned to spawn a new thread instead of using catch_unwind, which has been the recommended way to catch panics for foreign function interfaces for a few releases now.

This commit fixes that.

 It’s important to be mindful of `panic!`s when working with FFI. A `panic!`
 across an FFI boundary is undefined behavior. If you’re writing code that may
-panic, you should run it in another thread, so that the panic doesn’t bubble up
-to C:
+panic, you should run it in a closure with [`catch_unwind()`]:
 
 ```rust
-use std::thread;
+use std::panic::catch_unwind;
 
 #[no_mangle]
 pub extern fn oh_no() -> i32 {
-    let h = thread::spawn(|| {
+    let result = catch_unwind(|| {
         panic!("Oops!");
     });
-
-    match h.join() {
-        Ok(_) => 1,
-        Err(_) => 0,
+    match result {
+        Ok(_) => 0,
+        Err(_) => 1,
     }
 }
-# fn main() {}

+fn main() {}
 ```
 
+Please note that [`catch_unwind()`] will only catch unwinding panics, not
+those who abort the process. See the documentation of [`catch_unwind()`]
+for more information.
