Release Task Periodic Error : branch: main

[sgoggins]

Description:
When release metadata is not fully populated on a repo (a rare occurrence), the following error is generated:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    name = "" if release['author']['name'] is None else release['author']['name']

Release worker database errror handling

[sgoggins]

The error appears to occur when there is no author defined for a release. Example: https://github.com/ContainerSSH/dockerrun/releases .. None of the releases here have an author.

When we hit this code:

def get_release_inf(session, repo_id, release, tag_only):
    if not tag_only:
        name = "" if release['author']['name'] is None else release['author']['name']

We literally are trying to subscript a NoneType, which is not allowed. The issue is there is no author object at all. So, I think we need to test for that first. @ABrain7710 / @IsaacMilarky
