make search faster

While we know this needs fixing in WebCore, so that search can be done asynchronously, and not block the UI, there are some strategies we can use to alleviate the problem. One of them is not searching too early. Currently we search for each character the user adds to the search toolbar. Adding a small delay to search for longer strings improves this a lot. 

Try searching for 'media' in http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html with, and without my patch.
