Game crash when attack command is sent with an entity instead of entity id

Description

If a malformed command is sent (from an AI script) using 

Engine.PostCommand({"type": "attack", "entities": tasked, "target": ent, "queued": false});

instead of 

Engine.PostCommand({"type": "attack", "entities": tasked, "target": ent.id(), "queued": false});

then the game crashes with: unhandled exception (Access violation reading 0x00000008)

Ah, looks like WriteStructuredClone is failing silently (because the serialized object contains an object reference?), we don't handle this condition and end up with an empty StructuredClone - there's a TODO in the code about this. Then ReadStructuredClone crashes when the command is processed. If WriteStructuredClone fails then the whole command fails, so I guess we should report the error and ignore the command.
