ensure directory isn't NULL when calling garcon_menu_directory_get_visible

Just updated to xfce4-panel-4.7.0/garcon-0.1.1 and I found that it would segfault when I tried to open the app menu.

After poking around with gdb, I found this happened when checking the visibility of the root menu.

I wrote a quick patch to make sure that garcon_menu_directory_get_visible isn't called with a NULL directory. Not sure if this is the correct solution, but it seems to work.
