68faba6bde appDisplay: Special case terminal launching
One of the most frequent complaints about our launching behaviour is
how we handle terminals. Among all MDI applications, the terminal is
the one that is most likely to have lots of semi-independent windows
opened at the same time, and spawning new windows is much more common.
More so, if it does not support tabs.

Therefore, we special case terminal launchers to always create a new
window. It is an application that most non-technical users will not
use, so chances of them being confused by any special behaviour is
expected to be low.

d21aa0d85f shell-app: Track all application windows
Filtering out "non-interesting" windows beforehand as we currently do
means that we may get properties that should be based on all windows,
like the last time the application was used, wrong.
Just track all windows and filter out non-interesting windows manually
in the one place we actually care about the difference.

9cd7ea9371 search: Make the internal search interface callback-based
Long ago, the search system worked in a synchronous manner: providers
were given a query, and results were collected in a single array of
[provider, results] pairs, and then the search display was updated
from that.

We introduced an asynchronous search system when we wanted to potentially
add a Zeitgeist search provider to the Shell in 3.2. For a while, search
providers were either async or sync, which worked by storing a dummy array
in the results, and adding a method for search providers to add results
later.

Later, we removed the search system entirely and ported the remaining
search providers to simply use the API to modify the empty array, but the
remains of the synchronous search system with its silly array still
lingered.

Finally, it's time to modernize. Promises^WCallbacks are the future.

Port the one remaining in-shell search engine (app search) to the new
callback based system, and simplify the remote search system in the
process.

af06b78605 searchDisplay: Cache result display actors
When we create a result actor, cache it, so it can be used for
subsearches of the same initial. For now, to keep memory usage
and the stage graph relatively clean, don't persist the actors
across searches, but maybe we should do this in the future.

This also means that we don't query getResultMetas for items
that we've seen in the same initial search.

5a7e854f9e appDisplay: Remember selected view across sessions
The application picker will always open with the view that was last
selected during the session, but the selection is reset on each
restart. This results in some annoyance for users that use the
ALL view exclusively, as they have to toggle views once each
session - the same would apply to exclusive FREQUENT view users
were the defaults to be changed, so the best solution is to simply
make the selected view persistent by storing it in GSettings.

93d9c16672 appDisplay: Rework indicators animation
Previously the animation was not entirely according to the mockup.
Now we are closer to the mockup.

The padding for the indicators are decremented, since we need that
to make the animation not too quick. As a drawback, maybe visually
is not as good as before, or the area to click dots is too much little.
Just make that change for now and test it widely, and we can change
that after.

387184b052 appDisplay: Increase fade offset in FolderView
Just as we do in AllView, we set the offset of FolderViews' fade
effect so that no icon is faded when a full page is visible.
This works fine in AllView, however in the FolderView case where
the popup's offsets eat away from the available fade height, the
effect ends up being barely noticeable at all.
While it is not ideal to apply the fade to the edge of a "full page",
it looks less ugly than the current state, so pick the lesser evil ...

792b963bda iconGrid: Change IconGrid.addItem() to take an object instead of an actor
IconGrid has never really been a general purpose container, but has
always been used in conjunction with BaseIcon. IconGrid will soon
gain the ability to adjust the item size dynamically to adapt to the
available space, which will require that we can make some more
assumptions about the items added to the grid (namely: we need
access to BaseIcon's setIconSize() method).
So change addItem() to take an object instead, which should have
an actor and a (BaseIcon) icon property.

Based on a patch by Carlos Soriano.

754ca7c8f2 appDisplay: Paginate AllView
Organize applications in AllView by pages using the new PaginatedIconGrid
added previously. Pagination is generally a better pattern for collections
than scrolling, as it better suits spacial memory.
Hook into AppDisplay's allocation function to communicate the available
size to the different views before child allocations - this is only
required by the paginated view (as pages must be computed before
calling get_preferred_height/get_preferred_width), but doing it for
all views will guarantee that their dynamic spacing calculation is
based on the same values.
