Bug Description

This is a follow-up to https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/841945. Remaining issues are...

List of positioning issues:
- The search box is positioned wrong (centre should align with the center of the BFB, should start a few px to the left)
- There is too much space between the individual icons in the search result
- There is too much space below each category header
- The desktop dash box is much too large (both height and width)

----------------------------------

List of shape issues:
- Category header icons are too large
- The font size of category header titles is too large
- The search result icons are too small
- The search filter toggle boxes are too high
- The search filter toggle boxes are too narrow
- the search box is too short
- the expand/collapse triangle is the wrong shape and size
- the expand/collapse triangle is missing from the filter results category headers
- The the font size of the text underneath each icon in the search results is too large
- The size and shape of the arrow that points to the currently selected Dash Lens is incorrect

One more for the dash background, colour tweak so the background is darker
