Title:
  Page.head.sections selects the first item even though selectedIndex is
  -1

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Fix Released
Status in messaging-app package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu RTM:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In some cases it is desired that no header section is selected when
  the program starts. We used to achieve that by setting
  head.sections.selectedIndex to -1, but on Ubuntu.Components 1.3 this
  doesn't work: the first item gets selected by default. See the sample
  program below:

  import QtQuick 2.4
  import Ubuntu.Components 1.3

  MainView {
      id: mainview
      objectName: "mainView"

      width: units.gu(100)
      height: units.gu(75)

      Page {
          id: mainPage
          title: "Should not select"
          head.sections.model: [ "first", "second", "third" ]
          head.sections.selectedIndex: -1
      }
  }

  This is actually a regression, the sample program below works fine on Ubuntu.Components 1.2
  ---------------------------
  Update: The old header doesn't work with the new design properly, therefore apps should turn to use the 1.3 hearing as in the example below:
  it will work properly when the app switches to the new header:

  import QtQuick 2.4
  import Ubuntu.Components 1.3

  MainView {
      id: mainview
      objectName: "mainView"

      width: units.gu(100)
      height: units.gu(75)

      Page {
          id: mainPage
          header: PageHeader {
              title: "Should not select"
              extension: Sections {
                  model: [ "first", "second", "third" ]
                  selectedIndex: -1
              }
          }
      }
  }
