Allow to set additional in cfthrow

Description

Exceptions in Lucee have a key named `additional`, which I'm guessing stands for `additionalInfo` (perhaps we should "improve" the name).

The value of that key is an empty ordered struct when using cfthrow, but it can be much more useful if we can set it to provide additional info, e.g.

throw(type: "Test", message: "Testing", additional: { a:1, b:2 });

A simple test case can then be:

try {

		throw(type: "Test", message: "Testing", additional: { a:1, b:2 });
	}
	catch (ex){

		assertFalse( isNull(ex.additional.a) );  // ensure not-null
	}
