Allow for validating attributes read from yumdb
    
    Make sure we don't expose corrupted attributes read from the yumdb to
    the consumers.  There's at least one report of such a corruption: BZ
    1234967.  Instead, make requesting a malformed yumdb attribute
    equivalent to requesting a non-existent one -- which is a valid
    scenario, already handled by the consumers.
    
    Note that the actual validator function that fixes the above bug will be
    committed separately.

Don't crash on invalid from_repo in yumdb. BZ 1234967
    
    Implement a yumdb validator function for the from_repo attribute.  This
    prevents yum from crashing if an implicit conversion to unicode takes
    place somewhere and the attribute contains non-ascii chars due to some
    yumdb corruption.
    
    Reproducers:
    
    $ yum install foo
    $ yumdb set from_repo <non-ascii-chars> foo
    $ yum list foo  # crash
    $ yum --disablerepo=<repo-with-foo> reinstall foo  # crash
    $ yum --verbose version installed  # crash
