Bug description:
  Currently when you open the address book, dialer app, clock app etc,
  the bottom edge hint is visible and shows what the action is. This
  hint is hidden after a few seconds. This makes it difficult for the
  user to understand what the bottom edge does if he didn't read the
  bottom edge text in time.

  In the clock app design at
  https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Kkl7xT8BYo9mT8i3IXh6rPrDlNg6cBxTajahlRYIGlI/edit#slide=id.g18587dd40_029
  (Slide 4), the bottom edge text is supposed to show the time to the
  next alarm. By hiding this hint, it renders that text useless since it
  is hidden.

  -- Solution --
  - Hint tab is always displayed by default
  - When interacting with the content on screen it collapses (e.g. dialler - typing numbers, address book, clock - scrolling)
  - When user stops interacting, it reappears after 5 seconds
