Left/right arrow in app-grid is not usable when using auto-hiding dock and big icons

[Marco Trevisan (Treviño)]

[ Impact ]

Left or right icons to switch the application grid is not visible or not properly centered in the overview when using auto-hiding dock

[ Test case ]

1. Enable auto-hide in dock
  1a. Increase the icons size (to make the bug clearer)
2. Open the app grid (super+a)
3. Try to navigate right/left using the right/left arrows
4. They should be usable and properly centered in the available space

[ Regression potential ]

App grid has not the proper size.
