[orion-dev] released styling/layout changes for M6

I've just released a bunch of changes associated with getting our visual style polished for M6 [1].

Most of the changes are isolated in the common headers and the CSS. However, there are a few things that are unfortunately required in the HTML files for now.
My focus was on ensuring that the navigator, editor, and search results were all uniform. I made a few tweaks in git-status, sites, view-registry, and unittest, but I know they are not complete as far as having the same styling. I will take a pass through all the pages tomorrow, but if someone wants to get a head start for their favorite page, the following is required:

- you need to use globalCommandUtils.generateBanner to get the common banner, logo, etc.
- you need to set your dijit BorderContainer background to #c5c5c5 (I was having trouble overriding the dojo theme styles, I'll get this in the CSS later.)
- if you want your left pane to align with the dark bar under the orion logo, set its margin-left to 44px. I did not make this a uniform thing because it depends on page layout
- if you want your left pane to have the light gray color of outliner and favorites, use the class "auxpane"

I still have some more tweaking to do with respect to font colors, dojo overrides for menus, [2] etc.
I also plan to include some common links in the top area to help discover pages such as sites, plug-in registry, git-status, etc. [3]
