Provide better handling and central data collection for unknown card types #106

Description

Presently when a card does not have a full parser suite, a user gets a bunch of gory technical details, and it looks like an error. It would be good to be able to have this be more meaningful, by:

  • Providing an interface for end users to supply their card data, and information about what they see on the card, in order to collect in-the-wild scans.
  • Be able to throw an error when a card has no freely readable sectors, that their card will likely never be supported.
  • Have some stubs for some different public transit networks which metadata is known (ie: application IDs) but more data is required in order to have it be meaningful.

This would:

  • Allow those who are in a position to supply the project with data an outlet for it.
  • Reduce the number of complaints from end-users who do not understand NFC with infeasible requests.
