Unable to decode error messages from AMF gateway (Static attributes %r expected when decoding %r) #15

Description

@DrewHorrigan

Hi. I am trying to use Py3AMF to communicate with an AMF gateway, and I'm getting a bunch of errors in the process, due to poor understanding of the gateway on the remote end (completely because of me). However, I am unable to use pyamf.remoting.decode() to parse the resulting error messages from the server, despite them being valid AMF. I get the following error:

AttributeError: Static attributes {'destination', 'headers', 'rootCause', 'timeToLive', 'timestamp', 'extendedData', 'clientId', 'body', 'messageId'} expected when decoding <class 'pyamf.flex.messaging.ErrorMessage'>

Below is the full hex dump of one such responses that the library refuses to parse, with some data redacted with '#':

Am I doing it wrong, or is there something wrong with the module? How can I handle error messages gracefully? Right now I am catching AttributeError, but I'm missing out on the error message data.
