Included a new main menu that is more like a traditional menu system with AWN flare

Registered by IM.tehk

Some people are not keen on using the current main menu applet because of both size and limitations concerning large number of apps. I have worked on a new main menu for the past day that is smaller and has room for many more features.

The program works like this - you click on a category on the left side and the items inside of that category are placed inside the right side. If you then click on a application in the right side it opens it, but if you click on a submenu category it replaces the right side with the sub menus content. Rinse and repeat. Note that it always remains as two windows to keep the right menu at an exact position between clicking. When you open the program rather then having an empty right side menu, until you select a category, it displays your places. Search is another feature that I want to expand down the line. Currently it is hardwired to make a tracker-search-tool call using the command line but I plan on dbus beagle and tracker support once I get testing on the MiMenu and a main menu.

Testing is needed, you can find the trunk here: https://launchpad.net/awn-py-applets/trunk and updated awn packages in the specification page.
