ErrorProne: Enable and fix UnusedException check

Enable UnusedException at ERROR level which causes the build to fail
in many places with:

  [UnusedException] This catch block catches an symbol and re-throws
  another, but swallows the caught symbol rather than setting it as a
  cause. This can make debugging harder.

Fix it by setting the caught exception as cause on the subsequently
thrown exception.

Note: The grammatically incorrect error message is copy-pasted as-is
from the version of ErrorProne currently used in Bazel; it has been
fixed by [1] in the latest version.
