Title:
  [ffe] Restore a traditional menu under Unity

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Committed
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When fixing this bug, also take a look at bug #1131664 at the same
  time if possible.

  ------------------------------------------------------------

  In Nautilus 3.6, introduced in raring, the menu layout was changed from the traditional all-entries-in-one-menubar to:
  * an application menu called "Files" in the Unity menu bar
  * a view menu has moved to some toolbar buttons and a dropdown under an arrow in the upper right of a window
  * all other menu items have moved to a cog button dropdown in the upper right of a window

  For Unity, we should probably switch back to the more traditional
  layout (and keep the new layout for GNOME).  I'll assign an Ayatana
  task to get design guidance on what the layout should be.

  ------------------------
  Desired resolution:

  - Remove the 'cog' icon from the top right of the Nautilus toolbar.
  Move the view and search buttons over to the right, so that the right
  most view button occupies the position which previously held the cog
  button.

  - Patch Nautilus to have the following menu layout:
