StringBlock incremental hardening default values
When a string cannot be retrieved from a StringBlock due to pages of the StringPool missing, rather than throwing an IndexOutOfBoundsException, compute a default value rather that abides by the API contacts of the functions that use the StringBlock. IndexOutOfBoundsExceptions are not really documented as a possible exception that can be thrown from APIs that use StringBlock because it indicates that the binary resource table was built incorrectly. Returning default values is much less likely to break applications that fetch the resources of incrementally installed applications than throwing IndexOutOfBoundsExceptions where they would normally not be expected.
