Subject: [PATCH] ipaclient: schema cache: Handle malformed server info data
 gracefully

As a part of CLI schema cache some data about each previously contacted server
are stored in simple JSON file. The file may get corrupted and became
undecodable for various reasons (parallel access, file system error,
tampering). Since the data are not necessary we should just warn an continue.
