Subject: vim-patch:8.0.0702: error in a timer can make Vim unusable #9826

Problem:    An error in a timer can make Vim unusable.
Solution:   Don't set the error flag or exception from a timer.  Stop a timer
            if it causes an error 3 out of 3 times.  Discard an exception
            caused inside a timer.

closes #9826
