Bug - AutoKuma stop working when unknown monitor type exist in UptimeKuma "Failed to deserialize MonitorList" #167
Description
I wanted to add few external monitor in Uptime Kuma, so I created a GlobalPing monitor. AutoKuma instantly started to freak out because kuma-client doesn't know what "globalping" is. I got the errors in the logs but thing seems to still work, untill I restarted Uptime Kuma. After that it looks like AutoKuma is now unable to authenticate. If I delete the globalping probe, AutoKuma doesn't complain anymore and it just work.
I understand kuma-client or autokuma might not support adding and managing all the different monitor type but I expect it to at least ignore them.
Could you adjust client.rs or monitor.rs to ignore unknown value and only managed variant type it does support ?
This is the log I have after a restart of Uptime Kuma, it probably cleared the Autokuma session and because of the globalping monitor issue, it break the auth process for AutoKuma.
