Fix handling of badly formatted and empty plugin mime descriptions

The backtrace looks to be the same crash I encountered with the new Maemo
release (Diablo), which was due to the Nokia's browser plugin including a
trailing '; ' in their return value for NP_GetMIMEDescription().

The GTK+ PluginPackage code first splits by ';', then by ':' and assumes that
the latter always succeeds to find three elements and thus crashing when
there's less.

The patch fixes it to only accept well-formatted (ie. three elements separated
by ':' for each ';' block) mime descriptions.
