Title:
  Memory leak if category IDs are unique on every search

Status in Canonical System Image:
  In Progress
Status in unity-scopes-shell package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Shell plugin caches category models indefinately (only hides them if
  they have no results) based on their IDs. This means that if scopes
  create categories with unique IDs on every search, we will never
  reclaim that memory back.

  While scopes should never do that, some actually do - these scopes
  will be fixed (https://bugs.launchpad.net/scope-
  aggregator/+bug/1507666) but shell plugin should also be smater and
  remove unused categories.
