kgriffs 5f87afafcd Clean up exception handling in the WSGI transport driver.
This patch localizes try...except blocks, DRYs construction of
certain HTTP exceptions, and modifies what types of exceptions
are thrown (in some cases), to be more precise.

I also factored out some input validation code that happened
to be mixed up with all the exception handling.
