Bug Description
We have decided to disable online search results in the dash by default.
Changes needed are as follows:
1. "Include online search results" from Security & Privacy in Systems Settings should be OFF by default.
2. Amazon & Skimlinks to remain off by default and search results to not be generated without explicitly turning on those filters.
3. Music store option to be fully removed in 16.04 and beyond. I'll take advice on what the best option is for older supported releases.
4. The following scopes to be moved to Universe:
* Audacious
* Clementine
* gmusicbrowser
* Gourmet
* Guayadeque
* Musique (note: unity-scope-
