Subject: [PATCH] Fix #136252: Extra chevron on Particle context data
 breadcrumbs

Dont increment the path count (and dont create a corresponding pointer)
in `ButsContextPath` when there is no current particle system.
This alone would do the trick for particles, but I have also changed
`buttons_panel_context_draw` slightly (so that it checks if the pointer
is valid -- earlying out otherwise -- **before** drawing the triangle
icon) in case it might happen elsewhere too.
