The first patch improves the input validation of the CONTAINS operator. I believe this is not a critical fix, because RapidJSON already has exception-throwing RAPIDJSON_ASSERT() that check for unexpected JSON structure (like something we expect to be a list isn't actually a list), but it's cleaner to do these checks explicitly.
The second patch just removes an unnecessary call to format() on a constant string.
