John McLear c316402d86 PadMessageHandler: use a predefined color when authorInfo.colorId is not defined
For some reason authorInfo is sometimes null, and therefore it is not possible
to get colorId from it.

This resulted in the following stack trace:
    [2020-03-16 09:27:17.291] [ERROR] console - (node:1746) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot read property 'colorId' of null

This error originated either by throwing inside of an async function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was not handled with .catch(). To terminate the node process on unhandled promise rejection, use the CLI flag `--unhandled-rejections=strict` (see https://nodejs.org/api/cli.html#cli_unhandled_rejections_mode). (rejection id: 76)
    [2020-03-16 09:27:19.034] [WARN] message - Dropped message, USERINFO_UPDATE Session not ready.[object Object]

Which is due to a bug in Etherpad that we are not going to solve now.

As a workaround, when this happens, let's set the username to "Anonymous" (if
it is not already set), and colorId to the fixed value "#daf0b2". Warning
messages are written in the logs to signal this condition.

This is no definitive solution, but fixes #3612 (via a workaround).
