Issue details

Terraform providers are not expected (and do not) handle mistyped input. They often panic on mistypes inputs. When the typechecker fails, we knowingly feed them mistyped input. As long as we continue this practice, we should recover() from upstream panics when there were type checker failures.

This would reduce the impact and improve the error message when types don't line up: helping users to find and address the underlying issue faster and improving confidence in the bridge.

Follow up on #1979.

chore: catch panics when type checking logs warning
3efddaf 
The type checker is meant to catch user configuration errors that would
eventually cause a panic. We are currently only logging a warning so we
are not preventing the panic from happening. Even though we have the
additional warning, it is still confusing to users and some do not
correlate the warning with the panic.

This PR catches the panic when we do have type errors so that the user
will only see the warning and not the panic.
