Dash - the search box is not aligned correctly relative to the Launcher BFB button

[John Lea]

The Dash search box is not aligned correctly relative to the Launcher BFB button.

Desired solution:
- The middle of the Dash search box should be aligned exactly to the middle of the Launcher BFB button
- See visual designs in https://chinstrap.canonical.com/~sabdfl/11_10/desktop_and_netbook/dash/

Reverted to 'confirmed' because the alignment is still off by a few px. Almost there, close but no cigar.
