Fix issues with permit number #123

Closed davidorme closed 1 month ago

davidorme commented 3 months ago

The sdv checking appears to crash when a permit authority is named but no number is provided.

We need to:

[ ] Verify this actually causes a crash
[ ] Fix the crash
[x] Add docs to say that missing permit numbers can simply use a null value of "Unknown" or similar.

I haven't been able to replicate the crash on Mac or Ubuntu, so is tricky to fix. I guess the documentation change is a good thing to do regardless though
