Hello,

Normally (99.99% of the time), I run emacs using emacsclient.

Today I happened to run it with just emacs&. But then when I tried to quit
via save-buffers-kill-terminal, I got "Invalid client frame".

In files.el, we have:

(defun save-buffers-kill-terminal (&optional arg)
  "Offer to save each buffer, then kill the current connection.
If the current frame has no client, kill Emacs itself using
`save-buffers-kill-emacs'.

With prefix ARG, silently save all file-visiting buffers, then kill.

If emacsclient was started with a list of filenames to edit, then
only these files will be asked to be saved."
  (interactive "P")
  (if (frame-parameter nil 'client)
      (server-save-buffers-kill-terminal arg)
    (save-buffers-kill-emacs arg)))

When I eval'ed (frame-parameter nil 'client), I got "Unprintable entity"!

So server-save-buffers-kill-terminal gets called incorrectly instead of
save-buffers-kill-emacs when I actually do not have the emacsclient or
daemon running.

I do not see this issue on emacs 25.3 using my same emacs config.

Copying Martin as he might have an idea what could have caused this
regression.
