For virtual threads OpaqueFrameException was added to handle the case where a virtual thread was not suspended at an event, so the JDI implementation was updated to throw OpaqueFrameException if it detected that a native method was not the cause. It turns out however that JVMTI (and therefore JDWP) can return OPAQUE_FRAME error for reasons other than a native method or the special virtual thread case, and for platform threads we were incorrectly throwing NativeMethodException in these cases. This PR fixes that. For platform threads we now only throw NativeMethodException if a native method is detected, and otherwise throw OpaqueFrameException.
