Running out of resources can happen at almost any time, and can happen while `ScopedValue`'s internal structures are being modified, leaving them in an inconsistent state. We detect when a `VirtualMachineError` happens and walk the stack to find the most-recent set of `ScopedValue` bindings.

Threads created by the native invocation interface (rather than by Java threads) don't have that sentinel, so a search for it returns null. Therefore, in the rare cases where we have to do a stack walk, we must check for both `NEW_THREAD_BINDINGS` (the sentinel) and `null`. We weren't doing that, we were only checking for null.
