[FIX] web: search menus always available

Before this rev., the search menus (Filters, Group By, Favorites)
were lost when the user came back to an action with the
breadcrumbs (e.g. go to My pipeline, open a lead, click on the
Meetings stat button, go back to My pipeline).

This was because the two searchviews shared the same jQuery element
containing their dropdowns. This behavior is there for a long time,
but the bug has been revealed by 7b6056a0, which changes the way
the action manager and controllers interact with the control panel.
