ipc: alias set_property_string to set_property

The only effective difference is that the former explicitly checks
whether the JSON value type is string, and errors out if not. The rest
is exactly the same (mpv_set_property_string is mpv_set_property with
MPV_FORMAT_STRING).

It seems silly to keep this, so just remove it.
