As we're implementing more cbcs encryption handling, I would like to improve our logging and handling around malformed data. Particularly as the cenc and cbcs schemes have a number of fields that if populated mean fields from the other scheme should not be populated. Right now, if we receive a file that violates these rules, we may end up passing bogus data to the CDM, which can result in hard to track errors.

By improving our error handling and logging in cases where we're receiving bad data, we can be quicker to identify the cause.
