Automatically focus the Search field when displaying asset library

- Focus the project search box when switching from the Templates tab
  back to the Projects tab in the project manager.
- Add a context-specific placeholder for the asset library search box.
- Rename "Search" project filter box placeholder to the more
  descriptive "Filter projects". When performing a search on an
  existing selection, "Filter" is more accurate than "Search".
