revise advice about DESTROY

perlobj advised that a DESTROY method dying could clobber $@ for an
exception being thrown, which is no longer true since 5.14.  Remove that
caveat, and fix the description of what happens when a DESTROY method
dies.  Revise the related advice about localising global status variables,
including a list of all affected variables.  Fixes [perl #121761] and
[perl #122753].
