getting most of the options for all object types):

This PR does two things:
- tidy up the popup menu we get for parenting (removing non-funtional
options)
- enable "With Empty Groups" for lattices (no reason why this should not
work)
What this PR does not touch:
- the poll function for parenting (since this acts on selected objects,
checking all of them can be a costly operation which should not be part
of a poll function)
