Fix a segmentation fault in procmime_scan_text_content() in  case of conversion
failures

On my system (FreeBSD 10-Current amd64) trying to reply to:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2013-January/039176.html
reliably causes claws-mail 3.9.0 to segfault in procmime_scan_text_content().

claws-mail-3.9.0cvs55 should still be affected, but I only checked the code.

The attached patch prevents the NULL pointer dereferencing and
causes claws-mail to quote an empty message instead.

>From a usability point of view it might be preferable to quote the
unconverted text (risking incorrectly displayed characters), but from
the code it's not clear to me if this is the intended behavior.
