templater: don't panic on PropertyPlaceholder unset error

The idea is that, if .extract() succeeded in static context, it means the
property can be evaluated as constant. This will potentially eliminate
expect_string_literal_with(), though I'm not too sure if it's a good idea.
If needed, maybe we can extend the idea to suppress type/name resolution errors
by "if(some_static_config_knob, x, y)".
