Vates Simple User Interface: Avoid segfault if PV_PLUGIN_PATH is not set

Reported by: Janik Zikovsky Owned by: Michael Reuter

Blocking: Tester: Owen Arnold

Description

If you start MantidPlot and your PV_PLUGIN_PATH is not set, and you select a MDWorkspace, right-click to show the VATES simple 3D interface, MantidPlot crashes.

It would be better if it simply gave an error message or something.
