Story (Required)

As an OpenShift user, ServiceBindingOperator should not throw a panic when invalid annotations are set.

Background (Required)

A service could potentially have a completely invalid annotation (i.e. "service.binding/credentials: path='{.status.dbCredentials}',elementType=asdf").  Currently, SBO ignores the error thrown by these annotations and happily continues processing.

SBO can potentially throw a panic when an annotation's elementType is invalid (i.e. setting elementType=asdf).  Instead, we should log an error and prevent the binding from occurring.

In Scope

Changes to SBO to remove this panic and tests to ensure it doesn't return.

Approach(Required)

Find how this panic can be triggered and write tests verifying this behavior, then ensure these tests pass when the panic is removed.
