Reproduction steps

When playing a content with ads (handled by IMA SDK and media3-exoplayer-ima), and a playback error occurs during an ad playback, then the player stops instead of playing next ads and/or content.

Code example:

    String vmapPayload = "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>\n"
        + "<vmap:VMAP\n"
        + "    xmlns:vmap=\"http://www.iab.net/vmap-1.0\" version=\"1.0\">\n"
        + "    <vmap:AdBreak breakId=\"0.0.0.2097493962\" breakType=\"linear\" timeOffset=\"start\">\n"
        + "        <vmap:AdSource allowMultipleAds=\"true\" followRedirects=\"true\" id=\"1\">\n"
        + "            <vmap:VASTAdData>\n"

                    .build()
            )
            .build()
    );

In this example, the 2nd ad fails to play because it is DRM protected and the given license URL is wrong.

Expected result

Ads following the failed ad play, then the content plays.

Actual result

The player stops with an error.
