Subject: [PATCH] WINGs/wview_wl: don't redisplay from wl_map if parent lacks
 backing
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

During W_RealizeView recursion, children are realized and mapped
before their parent's backing pixman image exists. wl_map triggered
wl_redisplay which sent an expose event, the widget painted itself,
and render_wl_pixmap_copy tried to composite up through the parent
chain — hitting a NULL pixman image in pixman_image_composite32.

Fix: before triggering wl_redisplay from wl_map, walk up the parent
chain and verify all ancestors have valid backings. If any ancestor
lacks a backing (still being realized), skip the redisplay — the
parent's wl_map will handle it once the full tree is ready.
