Bug description:
[Impact]
Selecting text in evince crashes for some files in eoan
[Test case]
Open the pdf in bug 1855596 and select some text.
[Regression potential]
This adds a check for a null pointer before using the pointer; it's limited
to a small function checking if a font is glyphless so there is basically no
risk for regressio
