Title:
  /usr/bin/update-
  manager:AttributeError:<lambda>:on_settings_button_clicked:show_settings

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in update-manager source package in Zesty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact] 
  Update Manager passes it's window Id to software-properties by calling get_xid() which does not exist under wayland and results in this crash. This patch does not add --toplevel under wayland to work around this crash.

  [Test Case]
  Test Steps
  1. Launch update-manager and wait until the main UI is displayed (after sources are refreshed)
  2. Click on "Settings..."

  Expected result
  The Settings dialog is displayed

  Actual result
  It is not displayed and this crash occurs
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/UpdateManager/Dialogs.py", line 112, in <lambda>
      button.connect("clicked", lambda x: callback())
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/UpdateManager/Dialogs.py", line 127, in on_settings_button_clicked
      self.window_main.show_settings()
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/UpdateManager/UpdateManager.py", line 196, in show_settings
      "--toplevel", "%s" % self.get_window().get_xid()
  AttributeError: 'GdkWaylandWindow' object has no attribute 'get_xid'

  [Regression Potential]
  Very low. The option --toplevel is excluded only for wayland and added for any other display server. So for other display server than wayland the behaviour is unchanged.
