Annotating functions explicitly with `{.raises: [Exception].}` prevents
Nim from performing compile-time exception checking and is almost never
desired - it does have a tendency to spread through the codebase
however, similar to sub-par const correctness in C++.
The reason these annotations might have seemed necessary can be traced
to missing exception specifiers in the go imports bumped in this PR.
See
https://status-im.github.io/nim-style-guide/interop.c.html#functions-and-types
for background on Nim-go interop and
https://status-im.github.io/nim-style-guide/errors.exceptions.html for
more information on how exception tracking can be leveraged to find
missing error handling at compile-time.
This change has no runtime effect - it merely makes compile-time error
messages more informative or avoids them entirely.
