Skip modules with parse errors in deserialization

[HebaruSan]

Problem

1. Refresh the registry with CKAN v1.30.0
2. Close CKAN
3. Launch CKAN v1.29.2 or earlier

Cause

v1.30.0 added the MPL-2.0 license in 85ac317, and KSP-CKAN/NetKAN#8343 indexed a mod that uses it. Our License class throws an exception when an unknown license is found, so 6de9c74 made sure that spec_version is v1.30 or higher when this license is used.

Older clients will not be bothered by this as long as they are the only ones updating their own registries, because we skip modules with parsing errors during repo updates. However, if a newer client updates the registry, the module will be included, and there is no error handling for when we parse registry.json.

Changes

Now AvailableModule uses the OnError attribute to handle JSON parsing errors. It logs a warning, discards the affected CkanModule (happens automatically), and continues parsing. This allows CKAN to start even when it doesn't recognize a license in the saved registry.

Known limitations

This change won't affect installed modules. If your client is too old to parse modules that you've installed, you probably should be unable to start it.

Does the job!
