Bug description:
  Add 'installing' animation for when app is installed via drag & drop.

  Description:

  The desired behavior when a user drags and drops a uninstalled app
  from the Dash App Lens to the Launcher is:

  1) A 'uninstalled' version of the app icon is added to the Launcher.

  2) As the app downloads and installs, progress is displayed inside the
  launcher icon.

  3) When the app has finished installing, a Notify OSD notification
  tells the user that the app is installed.  The icon will also 'pulse'
  once.

  The following art assets are linked from this bug:

  1.  installing_animation.mov -
  https://chinstrap.canonical.com/~johnlea/1104launcher/installing_animation.mov

      This animation shows:
      - The uninstalled state
      - The installing progress animation
      - The installation complete 'pulse' animation

  =============================================

  This bug would be an ideal bug for someone to get started hacking on
  Unity, here's some information:

   * Time to fix: 15h
   * Difficulty: difficult
   * Implementation:

  To implement this feature there is an existing call in Launcher.cpp
  called "handle_dbus_method_call". Information is received about newly
  installed applications from there. The information contains icon size,
  starting position (of the animation), the name of the icon to load,
  and the aptdaemon task. This information should be nicely encapsulated
  into a new LauncherIcon subclassed from BamfLauncherIcon and loaded
  into the launcher model.

  New classes InstallLauncherIcon (subclasses BamfLauncherIcon)

  InstallLauncherIcon is a bamf launcher icon which is capable of
  tracking the install progress of an aptdaemon task and reflecting this
  state out through it's progress property. (initial animation will not
  match the design movie).

  Initial implementations should not worry about animations between the
  starting icon position and the placement on the launcher.
