[PATCH weston] desktop-shell: Fix a crash when right-clicking the panel

Yeah, the logic is pretty sketchy now - "if it's a shell surface, do the
error checking; otherwise, do nothing" - but I don't understand the code
well enough to know if this is the expected behavior.

Should the panel just be a shell surface? Then we could require that the
popup's parent is a shell surface and simplify the error check.
