Title:
  Crashes if broken snaps installed

Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-software source package in Artful:
  Fix Committed
Status in gnome-software source package in Bionic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  GNOME Software crashes if a broken snap is installed.

  [Test Case]

  1. Create and install a local snap:
  $ mkdir -p /tmp/broken-snap/meta
  $ printf "name: broken-snap\nversion: 1\n" > /tmp/broken-snap/meta/snap.yaml
  $ sudo snap try /tmp/broken-snap

  2. Break the snap
  $ rm /tmp/broken-snap/meta/snap.yaml

  3. Confirm the snap is broken:
  $ snap list
  Name         Version    Rev   Developer  Notes
  broken-snap             x1               try,broken

  4. Restart gnome-software
  $ killall gnome-software

  5. Open GNOME Software and go to installed tab. Wait for items to
  load.

  Expected result:
  Installed snaps are shown

  Observed result:
  GNOME Software crashes.

  [Regression Potential]
  Fix is to handle fields missing in broken snaps. Some risk of breaking 
related code.
