Subject: [PATCH] examples/ime: fix crash on wayland

When pressing Ctrl+Space, KeyEvent::text_with_all_modifiers would return
\0. That would get included in the text-input text. When an input method
gets activated, the invalid string returning \0 would get sent as
surrounding text, resulting in a Wayland protocol error and crashing the
application.
