When a formatter throws an exception from
SetExpectedDataType, the exception was being swallowed, and the request just dangled at the client without ever completing. With this fix, it completes with the exception. Since being unable to serialize a result is a fatal exception, this leads to the connection dying. This is preferable to a hang, and the exception is captured as the cause of the disconnect for later analysis.There is no test because the existing formatters don't throw in this code path. A new formatter might (like the one we're creating for Nerdbank.MessagePack).
