Before this change, expressions like:
with import <nixpkgs> {};
runCommand "foo" {} ''
echo '@nix {}' >&$NIX_LOG_FD
''
would result in Lix crashing, because accessing nonexistent fields of
a JSON object throws an exception.
Rather than handling each field individually, we just catch JSON
exceptions wholesale. Since these log messages are an unusual
circumstance, log a warning when this happens.
Fixes#544.

I think it is bad for these reasons when `tests/` contains a mix of
functional and integration tests
- Concepts is harder to understand, the documentation makes a good
unit vs functional vs integration distinction, but when the
integration tests are just two subdirs within `tests/` this is not
clear.
- Source filtering in the `flake.nix` is more complex. We need to
filter out some of the dirs from `tests/`, rather than simply pick
the dirs we want and take all of them. This is a good sign the
structure of what we are trying to do is not matching the structure
of the files.
With this change we have a clean:
```shell-session
$ git show 'HEAD:tests'
tree HEAD:tests
functional/
installer/
nixos/
```
