files-view: make search robust

This is the last patch of a series of patches to fix all the
related issues with search synchronization, robustness on search, etc.
This patch orders fix when the view is requested to load a search
directory.

This is tricky because the views expect real locations, and when a
caller sets the view to start searching the view expect to already have
a real location loaded, so it can set the invented search directory with
the model as a backing uri.

In the case that window slot request a search directory, we are screwed,
because either we load first the real backing uri, which will screw
the window slot and all of the connected users of the view when the
is-location signal is done, or we first set the query and then load the
search directory, which will screw it anyway because the real location
set up at that point in the view is not the one associated with the
search directory.

So we effectively need to do both at the same time.
To do that, implement a set_search_query_internal which will allow us to
pass a backing uri, so when the slot sets a location that is a search
directory, instead of loading the directory itself, we only set the
query indicating the real location behind, so it can set up everything
in the search directory before loading it.

This patch was done with a few things in mind, and it actually fixes
few other issues. For example, now then we reuse the directory from the
slot, we actually create a new search directory, so we actually don't
reuse it. The point for this is because if we reuse the directory, any
stop to the search directory will stop the future search that we just
set. This happens when the slot stops the old view to load (which had
the same search directory before this patch) after setting the new
view to load.

A better fix would be to get rid of the nautilus-search directory
invention or to make it only internal, and make the window-slot be aware
when a location was also searching (with a struct instead of using
nautilus-bookmarks).
