[TYPO3-core] RFC: make the page tree filter pretty

Hey all,

I took Ingo's work over and refined it. This is the first patch of the 
Tree improvements - series for 4.2.

This patch against trunk does the following:

* Refactor Kaspers code (by Ingo mostly)
* Based on the latest prototype (also in trunk already, so no need to 
ship it extra)
* Adds the filter not with alpha channel (IE 6 can not do this) but with 
a solid white background.
* Add a top bar to the page tree. This way it looks good, does not take 
too much space, plus I added the "refresh tree from server icon" and the 
CSH icon up there.

The two search*png files should go into typo3/gfx/, the "navbar.png" is 
a preview on how it should look like.

Please test and review, then we can proceed with the next steps.

I think this solution we all can live with, since it does not take too 
much space, although the filter box is still not useful yet.

If anyone is not happy with the design yet, please write the patch for 
it as we all now, everybody has a different taste.

The next steps for me would be:

* Adding a "Expand All" / "Collapse All" button to the top bar.
* Making the Filter AJAX based to search the whole tree (server side) 
and not just grey out the bad ones but narrow down the page list.
* Playing around with the position (could go to the bottom as well, 
maybe as the default or as an option.... could be sticky at the top or 
at the bottom).
* Make the Installer menu similar to the pagetree menu
* Make it look good in the Cleaner Backend.

I'll start working on these jobs once this patch is in the core.
