With side stage, content hub transfer dialog overlaps with the called app

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

On a device that supports side stage in landscape more

Test Case:
1. Open the contact app
2. Create a new contact
3. Add a photo
4. Select the camera

Actual Result
The camera controls are hidden behind the transfer window

Expected Result
The transfer dialog is not visible.

This is also related to not running apps in the sidestage by default
Hiding the sidestage allows it all to work

Is critical for frieza:

Main issue is that if app in sidestage requests content-hub operation, the new app usually is launched is main stage. This is problematic for 2 reasons:
1) you see ugly "Transfer in progress" dialog in source app in sidestage
2) the destination app running in main stage is partially obscured by the side stage and selection/picking operations can be obscured by the side stage.

We have a couple options here I could think of, depending on timing and what is planned for the shell and side-stage
@saviq please comment
1) if app running in sidestage and requests app launch/picking via content-hub, always launch the choosen app in side stage as well.
Pros: "transfer in progress" dialog hidden, nothing obscured in destination app Cons: destination app not using available space
2) when main stage app is launched it should be side by side with side stage, not behind it
3) if content-hub operation requested from side stage, hide the side stage after launching the destination app and show it after content-hub transfer complete. This would most likely require an api that content-hub could call which I don't believe exists today

Ultimately, content-hub operations will be done with a trust-prompt which would help/change this problem somewhat, but that is not happening in the near term.
