Describe the problem

runTransaction errors can not be caught.

Steps and code to reproduce issue

Start with the database empty.

var db = getDatabase();
connectDatabaseEmulator(db, '127.0.0.1', 9000);
await update(ref(db, "users/testUser/starCount"), { starCount: increment(1) });
try {
    await runTransaction(ref(db, "users/testUser"), post => {
        console.log(post);
        if (post) {
            var starCount = post["starCount"];
            starCount++;
            post["starCount"] = starCount;
            return post;
        } else {
           return null;
        }
    });
} catch (e) {//it never reaches catch
    console.error("transaction error");
    console.error(e);
}

The following error shows up on the console

Error: transaction failed: Data returned contains NaN in property 'users.testUser.starCount'

However, the error can never be caught. I also tried using a try catch block inside the transaction itself, and it still didn't work.
