Update Graphic Interface (toolbar, headerbar)

Registered by Erasmo Marín

We should start using granite and use Gtk.HeaderBar and AppMenu. It has been considered in the past to use HeaderBar (see http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/7241 and https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=711221) and a good start is this mockup: http://bassultra.deviantart.com/art/Photo-Management-App-385256095. I think it's better to draft about it in a blueprint instead of reporting a bug.

Sprints

Whiteboard

I would love to move to something more like Harvey's design, but the first thing we need to do is figure out where to put all the stuff that's currently in the menubar --DanRabbit

The menubar can be easily edited because all the menus can be edited from the .ui files in the ui folder. We just need to redefine how they should be. About the toolbar, if we want to have the toolbar in the headerbar, it will need some work, because we will need to separate the bottom toolbar in 2 new toolbars, one at right and other at the left of the title. I'm doing some experimental work and here I have some advances (screenshot: http://i1193.photobucket.com/albums/aa348/th3_k4t/2014-02-0602_18_34-screenshot_zpse868cec1.png ). --Erasmo Marín

Gonna mark this as "implemented". We've made some serious changes. Anything else can be tracked by regular reports. --DanRabbit
