    wslua: fail on tree:add(nil)
    
    It is unlikely that tree:add(nil) or tree:add(nil, tvb) represents a
    valid invocation. Most likely the developer made a mistake and tried
    something like:
    
        local pf_thing = ProtoField.string("some.thing", "Description")
        some_proto.fields = { pf_thing }
        ...
            tree:add(some_proto.fields.thing, tvb())
    
    which should have been:
    
        some_proto.fields = { thing = pf_thing }
    
    or:
    
            tree:add(pf_thing, tvb())
    
    Save the developer some pain and bail out early.
