Description

In anticipation of having more kinds of storage announcements, the storage client should change to be less freaked out when it encounters an announcement that's not in exactly the one shape it understands.

In a plugin-enabled future, we expect there to be much more diversity in the storage access protocol. It will become more common for clients to encounter announcements they can't understand (and don't care about - because they're not in line with the user's preferences). These should not cause scary looking errors in any logs.

This will be a useful step towards #3054 which will introduce a way for storage clients to interpret these announcements.
