Details

If an addon includes <em:optionsType>2</em:optionsType> in its install.rdf, but the .xpi contains no options.xul, the detail pane is broken (as in, won't even show anything). We need to catch any exceptions coming from the XHR that loads the inline options file.

Additionally, when reading the manifest, we should check then and there whether optionsType is valid. ie, if it's set to 2 (inline), but there's no corresponding options.xul file, then the manifest is lying and we should store 0 (none) in the database.
With bug 1414406 about to land, this is no longer relevant
