Side view zombie window

Description 

The following bug report has been submitted:
Platform:        Windows-10-10.0.17763
ChimeraX Version: 0.91 (2019-07-18)
Description
Autostart side view, then close side view with the "x" button on its title bar.  This creates a top level zombie window, apparently the former side view.

Probably this is caused by the self.setParent(None) in the SideViewUI.close() methods causing the side view to become an unparented top level.  It does not appear the window is deleted.

It is not necessary to autostart side view.  Simply starting it and closing it creates the zombie window on Windows.

Do not get the zombie window on Mac.
