AppDisplay queues a deferred work to load frequently used apps when the
apps page is loaded. Unfortunately, when the overview is first opened,
all the pages start out visible and then immediately get hidden, so the
deferred work runs immediately after the first overview opening, whether
the user was going to view their frequent apps or not.
Start all pages off as hidden, and rearrange the code so that pages are
only shown when they really need to be.

The existing provider system is split between a confusing mess of
RemoteSearch, SearchSystem, SearchDisplay, and ViewSelector, partly
because of the vestigal in-shell search system. Move most of the
logic to search.js so it's easier to read.
search.js used to do a lot more, but now that most of the
functionality has been moved to the remote search system,
it doesn't do a lot. Merge searchDisplay.js into it.
It's been broken for quite a bit since we removed Panel.Animation,
and hasn't really ever worked with our new search results. It's also
the only non-remote provider left.
Maybe we'll add it back as a remote provider later, but for now, just
ditch it.
It is expected that the primary and secondary icons in entries
change places in RTL locales. When doing so, the edit-clear
icon must be replaced by an rtl variant too.

This method, which accepts a .desktop filename, is used to highlight
a specific application in the overview, for example because it has
just been created or installed.

As we want to eventually track two geometries, we need to rename
our very plain "_x, _y, _width, _height". While we could just prefix
them, I think that stuffing them in an object makes more sense.
At the same time, make the variable and method name more descriptive
by adding such a prefix, as well as a bit of documentation.

To ensure that we don't recalculate window layouts when zooming
in or out, we need to always pass the full geometry. This will
break window repositioning when we zoom back in; for the purposes
of commit clarity, this breaks this feature for now. It will be
added back soon.

This is a new, regular keybinding for going to the overview.
The default binding is Super-S, which goes well with Super-A
for going to the application grid.
This is separate from the existing panel-main-menu keybinding,
so that we can keep Alt-F1 opening the main menu in classic mode.

We recently started to trim leading and trailing whitespace from
the search string, and not to trigger a search when the resulting
string was empty. However we still allow whitespace to trigger
type-ahead-find, so that the key focus is moved briefly to the
search entry and back to the stage, resulting in a disruptive
flickering of the entry.
Fix this by excluding whitespace from triggering type-ahead-find.

With categories removed, the separation between AllAppDisplay and
ViewByCategories no longer makes sense. Also use this opportunity
to rename the outdated AllAppDisplay to AppDisplay; it will
eventually be used to manage different views.

If the animation time is not the same for these two, the translation
will be adjusted to the allocation during the tween, resulting in a jump
in the animation.

When we reset the state of the checked button due to the overview
showing and hiding, block the normal checked callback and immediately
switch to the workspaces page, so that windows seamlessly fade in.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693974
Set the checked property explicitly. This is because
resetShowAppsButton() will only be used to flip the button state
blocking the page change in a future commit.

This is nothing but a middle man, as the view selector already owns
the search system. We want to start being a bit more tricky with what
we do with the search system so that we ignore whitespace, so let's
cut the middle-man out now.

In the overview, when there is no text in the search entry, this._searchActive
will be set to false. Moving the Clutter.Return code block ensures that
pressing enter in the search field after deleting the characters of a search
will no longer launch the #1 application for the previous search.

'active' isn't terribly clear about just what is active; also, make it
private, remove an useless extra object state we were saving, and
refactor some messy code.
Based on a patch by Tanner Doshier.

Since commit 0c807bddaf, the run dialog no longer handles Escape
key presses itself but uses the action key mechanism of modal dialogs.
As the latter uses key-release events, our own handling of the Escape
key runs on key-press.
Fix this by bailing out early if anything has pushed a modal in addition
to the overview (like system modals, looking glass, ...).

The top panel and message tray icons were by default a gnome foot and
are replaced by better ones. The applications icon is now using the
symbolic apps icon of the dash, and the windows icon is also improved.

This is a workaround for power users for the "Show Apps" button
placement being too inconvenient to press at the bottom of the
dash favorites list.
Unity also uses Super+A to show the Apps lens.

Remove the PlacesManager, its search provider and all associated code.
Places search is now provided by nautilus using the external search
provider API.

Since we now use the capture phase to feed events into the input
method, we must set the capture flag for the event that starts
searches so that IMs can get at it.

With the latest changes to the overview, the application view is now
clearly on a different level compared to the window picker. For that
reason it now makes sense to close it on Escape rather than hiding
the overview directly, as we do for search.

Rather than relying on implementation details of StWidget's keyboard
navigation to "hide" the focusTrap from arrow key navigation, implement
the desired behavior explicitly in a custom widget.
