This PR fixes the documentation about how to enbale C++ exception. The problem was identified the first time in this issue: #85. In Windows system is not enough add the following configuration on binding.gyp:

'msvs_settings': {
    'VCCLCompilerTool': { 'ExceptionHandling': 1 },
 },

but it's necessary override the defined _HAS_EXCEPTIONS macro and set it to 1.
In the common.gypi (see: https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/common.gypi#L273) the _HAS_EXCEPTIONS has been set to 0 to make sure the STL doesn't try to use exceptions, but in the addons with the support for C++ it needs to be changed to 1 otherwise the exceptions system could be catch the wrong exception.
