core: Catch errors when trying to read from settings portal

`g_dbus_proxy_call_sync` will return NULL and set the recoverable
`error` in case of failure.

We didn't catch this previously so reading the variant from the return
value caused a CRITICAL because a user didn't have the `week-start-day`
setting (introduced in 50.alpha) and the returned `GVariant` was NULL.

Now, we check whether en error is set after calling
`g_dbus_proxy_call_sync` and propagate it to the calling method so it
can gracefully handle it.
