Display only the url in the url entry

[erikos]

The first versions of the Browse activity had no tabs. We needed a way to display the url and the title in the UI. We did a trick and used the hovering over the entry to switch between displaying the title or the url. This worked, but was subuptinmal and leaded to a few confusions.

The good news is, that now with tabs we have one more area where we can display such information, the tab. So like in Safari on the iPad we could reserve the url entry for the url and put the title in the tab.

The width of the tab is not enough (mostly) to keep the complete title of the URL, so I think we should add a hover on it to display a palette with the complete title as well.

I had to add a new property in Browse class to save the url entered by the user. This is because if we switch over the tabs we will get a None uri if the page can not be loaded yet.

So, I'm saving the effective_url in this property (loading_url) and I'm showing it if browser.pops.uri is None.

Good, but I think the gobject property is unnecessary, using a conventional python class attribute instead is fine. I pushed it with this change as 5d018839 . Thanks!
