You need to update Parser API implementation to handle catch parameter
being expression - rather than an IdentNode.

=> you need to

* add another getter in CatchNode to expose Expression

* Use it in IRTranslator (of Parser API impl.) to translate catch param
as expression

* You need to check for expression param in codegen pipeline to throw
"not yet implemented" error.
