Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/JakeStanger/ironbar/issues/418

Given:

{
  "type": "label",
  "label": "<span color='#battery-color'>#battery-percent</span>"
}

I get this runtime error, even when ironvar_defaults defined:

(ironbar:445544): Gtk-WARNING **: 16:34:18.280: Failed to set text '<span color='' from markup due to error parsing markup: Error on line 1 char 31: Document ended unexpectedly while inside an attribute value

Ironbar version: v0.14.0

Fixed an issue where the dynamic string parser was being too greedy, and a separate issue where it'd initialize with an empty string causing the warning. Cheers for reporting
