Improve repo manager input validation by type #890

Metadata input from the data repository is not type checked, which can lead to mysterious server failures at run time (this happens when we run the proto based server against the current ga4gh-example-data). #889 fixes this temporarily, but we should improve data checking when we ingest the data.

Argparse might be doing this for us at the CLI level. To close this add type checking of arguments to the repomanager functions.
