[facets] Fix disappearance of navtop component on facet filtering which is because facets are replacing the whole #pageContent div, while this one contains other stuff than the view: * a type selector component that should be dropped for a while, * a computed title, * the page navigation. Then the view content itself is in a #contentmain div. The thing is that the navigation should be rebuilded on filtering (this is not the case for other bullets in the list above). This is currently handled specifically in the ajaxcontroller (except for the type selector which will disappear... who said it should be dropped at once?). So to fix this we: * put the page navigation into the "contentmain" div * don't replace anymore "pageContent" but "contentmain" After that we can even remove from the ajax controller the code that reimplements title handling similarly to the main template. Notice the part that changes the main template has to be ported to squareui. Closes #17074195

The development team is pleased to announce the 3.0.0 release of CubicWeb, also
know as ShowTime.

What is CubicWeb?
-----------------

With CubicWeb, the Semantic Web is a construction game!

CubicWeb_ is a semantic web application framework, licensed under the LGPL, that
empowers developers to efficiently build web applications by reusing components
(called cubes) and following the well known object-oriented design principles.

Its main features are:

    * an engine driven by the explicit data model of the application,
    * a query language named RQL similar to W3C’s SPARQL,
    * a selection+view mechanism for semi-automatic XHTML/XML/JSON/text generation,
    * a library of reusable components (data model and views) that fulfill common needs,
    * the power and flexibility of the Python programming language,
    * the reliability of SQL databases, LDAP directories, Subversion and Mercurial for storage backends.

Being built since 2000 by an R&D project still going on today, supporting
100,000s of daily visits at some production sites, CubicWeb is a proven end to
end solution for semantic web application development that promotes quality,
reusability and efficiency.

The unbeliever will read the quick overview_ of CubicWeb.

The hacker will join development at the forge_.

The impatient will move right away to installation_ and set-up of a CubicWeb
environment.
