STR #1162: Fl_Menu_Button::popup was trying to access a previously de…

…leted widget (itself). The delayed deleting mechanism in 'Fl::delete_widget' did not work in this case because the main loop is called before the callback returns. The fix implements a type of automatic pointer that will be cleared to NULL should the widget get deleted. This may not be a 'nice' solution, but it does fix the problem reliably. We could actually use this for all widget pointers and remove the delayed delete mechanism alltogether
