MetaWindowActor: survive having no MetaSurfaceActor

We need a MetaWaylandSurface to build a MetaSurfaceActor, but
we don't have one until we get the set_window_xid() call from
XWayland. On the other hand, plugins expect to see the window
actor right from when the window is created, so we need this
empty state.

Based on a patch by Jasper St. Pierre.
