how do you catch a `java.net.ConnectException`  in common code?
i cannot define a `expect class ConnectException: Exception`  because that extends `kotlin.Exception`  and not the java exception type..
and without that i cannot catch it..
event `catch)e: Throwable)`  in common code does not catch it

Isn't kotlin.Exception a typealias to java Exception on jvm?

actually `kotlin.Exception` is a typealias to java `Exception` when targeting jvm.

So, your `expect/actual` should just work
