Clicking On Type to Search invokes 'Searching for" functionality

Tomislav Pap requested to merge tomislavp/plasma-desktop:AppDashboardClickSearchingForFunctionality into master

This is implementation of click on Type to Search behavior which better indicates that text should be typed in order to search for application. This fix is especially useful for touchscreen devices as it is clearer that search box is selected and ready for input.

  1. Also it fixes weird cursor behavior when clicked on search box, as cursor used to be visible but then user couldn't really edit placeholder text which disappears when typing starts.
  2. It also fix behavior when clicked on search term where cursor used to be able to be placed at any position of search term(but can't edit search term in any position but only at the end of it) and now when clicked, search term is selected and cursor is at the end of the search term.

BUG: 398498
