In the wild we have buggy clients (notably Chromium 77 and earlier) that send metadata with the wrong types. Previously, this would throw an exception and prevent the MPRIS information from showing up in the message list. This changes the code to check if any incoming metadata is of the type it is expected to be, and logs a warning if not, then continues on with a default value. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/1362
