[search] Do not update text input when it has focus

Ismael Asensio requested to merge work/search_update into master

When the user is entering a search term, a delayed search will be emmited after a few seconds. This means updating the search URL, which in turn gets parsed and reflected back on the search input.

To avoid interrupting the user input flow and unexpectedly move the cursor to the end, let's update the input search box only when it doesn't have the focus.

It's still updated on other interactions such as changing the search options or clicking a saved search on the places panel.
