Patch to correct TLW behaviour

In some situations when a wxWebView is created it is unable to find a top level (grand)parent window.
The code currently assumes it will always be able to do this so in these instances it either crashes or behaves erratically, I attach a patch below that attempts to handle the situation more gracefully as well as warning about the problem when in debug mode.
