Bug Description

In our user testing users often failed to access the spread via long right edge swipe. We want to make spread a bit more accessible by moving second phase commit point few grid units to right. Not to affect the overall functionality and experience the right thing to do is to make first phase reveal phase shorter which then automatically moves both first phase and second phase commit point same amount towards right.

See the spec for detailed descriptions of different gesture phases: https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/document/d/1FC_-5yz5kPy_ZvTphaqxOgI5BPnALFbxRAO4eJkzlf8/edit#

Desired solution:
Shorten the first phase reveal by 4 gu

Since the 4gu value is just an estimate and might need refining the result should be approved with design team before committing.
