Buddy List needs to take a reference to the loaded theme. Fixes #8798. Loading the preferences calls purple_theme_manager_refresh, which unrefs the themes (and would free the loaded one), which leads to accessing freed memory.

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go
http://developer.pidgin.im and click on API.  From there, see the HOWTOs in the
"Related Pages" section.

You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the
source tree.  The documentation will be in the docs/html directory.
