When a view is destroyed then the views of subsurfaces remain until the view
list is rebuilt for the next repaint.
During that time view->parent_view contains an invalid pointer and weston will
crash when it tries to access the view.
This happens for a surface with subsurfaces with views on two different outputs
with the ivi-shell:
When the surface is destroyed then the destroy handler of the ivi-shell
(shell_handle_surface_destroy()) may be called first. It will (indirectly)
destroy the view of the main surface with weston_view_destroy().
Next the surface destroy handler of the subsurfaces
(subsurface_handle_parent_destroy() is called. It will unmap the first view of
the subsurface. Here weston_surface_assign_output() is called which tries to
find the output of the second view and accesses the now invalid
view->parent_view in the process.
There are probably other ways to trigger similar crashes.
To avoid this, clear view->parent_view when the parent view is destroyed.
Fixes 0669d4de4f ("libweston: Skip views without a layer assignment in
output_mask calculations")
