Window Spread's type-to-search conflicts in maximization of open windows

[Ali Najafi]

To reproduce the bug:

1. open multiple windows;
2. open Window Spread/Scale (Super+W);
3. search for a window by typing and select it;
4. now switch to another window without using Window Spread again;
5. try to maximize/unmaximize window.

You will see the maximized window is expanded horizontally and vertically, but there are two title bars i.e. the window keeps its title bar separate from the top indicator bar even after maximization.

This bug doesn't affect windows opened after window spread search.

Opening Window Spread again without searching will fix the bug.

This is NOT a duplicate of bug #1316265.

This is different and ONLY occurs when you search for a window by TYPING. A workaround for this will be opening and closing the Window Spread (for exmple by pressing Super+W twice).
