StTextureCache: don't crash if we fail to allocate a framebuffer

It's possible that FBO creation fails due to hw limits or the
driver not exposing the EXT_framebuffer_object extension.
In that case, just give up on creating square icons.

This is not a complete fix, because the trace shown should not
go through this path, but at least it would rule out the "weird
driver" case.

Attachment 271481 [details] pushed as ac76940 - StTextureCache: don't crash if we fail to allocate a framebuffer

Closing because this is technically fixed, as in, the shell does not
crash anymore, but please file a new bug as soon as you have more
information on the real underlying cause of this.
