Handle "market://search?q=<query>" intents to support third-party launcher searches (Niagara Launcher or others)

[tonur]

Niagara Launcher has a feature that allows searching via an app store for a phrase. Shown here:

Currently, when a third-party launcher (like Niagara Launcher or Kvaesitso) triggers an app store search using the standard Android market URI intent, Aurora Store intercepts the intent but fails to execute the search. Instead of routing the user to the search results for the provided query, it simply drops the user on the start screen.

I'm at least pretty sure that the launcher broadcast an Intent.ACTION_VIEW with the URI market://search?q=.

My idea for a new feature in Aurora Store would be to handle this routing by parsing the q query parameter from the market://search URI and automatically route the user to the internal search view, prepopulated with the query.
