GtkPlacesView currently provides no example of
server addresses, which may confuse users.
To fix that, add a helper popover with some
guidance on server addresses.

Disclosure triangles are usually used pointing down, however
in this case the popover spawns in the upper direction, which
makes it odd looking.
Instead of pointing always down or up, point down when not toggled and
animate a rotation when toggled.

Since we started adding a persistent Computer item,
all the code related to the view modes became obsolete,
since the view is never empty anymore. So, drop this
dead code and use the plain stack to manage the empty
search results view.
Also, this patch fixed a very annoying keyboard navigation
issue where we couldn't go from the On This Computer to Networks
lists, because they were two separate widgets. Merge the two
lists into a single one, and update headers accordingly.
Places sidebar shows XDG directories, mounted and unmounted devices,
connected networks, bookmarks and actions like 'Connect to server'
and 'Insert location', which causes the sidebar to grow very quickly
and look cluttered. Because of that, new mockups for the sidebar try
to simplify it.
To make the sidebar simpler, the new mockups propose that it should
only handle connected networks and removable devices such as flash
drives and USB devices, and delegates other devices for external
widgets through the 'Other Locations' item.
To handle fixed devices and manage network connections, add a new
widget named GtkPlacesView, based on Nautilus mockups to keep
consistency between GNOME file management tools - in this case,
between Nautilus and the bundled Gtk's file chooser.
