Introduce LiveServerUnknownMessage to represent unrecognized messages received from the server.
Previously, the LiveServerMessageSerializer would throw a SerializationException when encountering an unknown message type. This change modifies the serializer to instead log a warning and return a LiveServerUnknownMessage for any unhandled types. The LiveSession's message handler is updated to explicitly ignore these unknown messages.

This prevents crashes due to unexpected server messages and allows for forward compatibility with new message types.

Code Review

This pull request modifies the LiveServerMessageSerializer to handle unknown message types by returning a LiveServerUnknownMessage and logging a warning, rather than throwing a SerializationException. Corresponding updates were made to LiveSession to ignore these unknown messages and to the test suite to verify the new behavior. Review feedback identified a potential runtime crash due to an overly long Android log tag and a typo in a test method name.
