[search] Do not update text input when it has focus

When the user is entering a search term, a delayed search will be
emmited after a few seconds. This means updating the search URL, which
in turn gets parsed and reflected back on the search input.

To avoid interrupting the user input flow and unexpectedly move the
cursor to the end, let's update the input search box only when it
doesn't have the focus.

It's still updated on other interactions such as changing the search
options or clicking a saved search on the places panel.
