I have no idea what you are doing, but ivi-shell does not implement
wl_shell at all. There is no global advertised with the name
"wl_shell", which you can see with e.g. weston-info. Therefore a call to
wl_shell_get_shell_surface() should lead to a crash, abort, or a fatal
protocol error.

wl_shell protocol does not make sense in an IVI environment.
