 Fix for recover with -fexternal-interpreter (#15418)

 Summary:
 When using -fexternal-interpreter, recover was not treating a Q
 compuation that simply registered an error with addErrTc as failing.

 Test Plan:
 New unit tests:
 * T15418 is the repro from in the ticket
 * TH_recover_warns is a new test to ensure that we're keeping warnings
 when
   the body of recover succeeds.
