  of new object

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  fwbuilder will crash immediately if the user tries to create almost
  any type of new object.

  On Noble, even the gnome-shell will crash when fwbuilder crashes and
  the user will need to login again.

  [ Test Plan ]

  1. Open fwbuilder
  2. Close the Quick Start Guide,.
  3. Click on the "New Object" icon.
  4. From the popup menu, click on "New Library"

  If the package is not fixed then it will crash immediately.

  With the fixed package, it will open the screen with the New Library
  editor.

  [ Where problems could occur ]

  It is an upstream patch and is just adding a NULL check before the
  pointer is actually dereferenced. There is no other change in the
  code. And, so the chances of a regression is very less for this
  change.

  [ Other Info ]

  Focal also has the same problem but this patch alone is not fixing the
  problem with Focal. It will need more changes and it appears it will
  need fixes in "qtbase-opensource-src".

  [ Original Bug Description ]

  To reproduce:
  * start fwbuilder without any arguments
  * click "New Object"
  * click any type of object, e.g. "New Library"
  * fwbuilder will segfault

  Here is the stack trace:
