First draft done.  No drag/drop yet - it only becomes useful once we  
allow mixed AND/OR sorting.  Not linked in DIMP yet.

Done. This still needs to be done via an IMP specific data structure  
rather than the query object, but this structure has been optimized  
for reduced memory/storage.

Additional TODOs:
7. Document criteria UI data structure.
8. Implement or searching (+ drag/drop)
9. Implement 'SINCE' searches
10. Implement custom header searches
11. Link advanced search inside dimp view
12. Auto-upgrade virtual folders from IMP 4.x format (take old UI  
array, convert it to new UI array, and pass this new array to  
IMP_Search_UI::createQuery())
