RFC: Execute search immediately after an AOI is selected

RFC = Requested feature consideration

Right now, the workflow for searching for daily imagery looks like:

1. Select some AOI
2. (optional) apply filters
3. Hit the "Search" button

The current workflow is confusing because after an AOI is selected in 1), the search results say "Sorry, no results have been found"

This is in contrast to the workflow for loading a saved search - which executes the search as soon as the saved search is loaded.

I propose that we automatically search as soon as the AOI is selected.

Not sure this is a good idea. I think that it was a design decision to have it behave like that. Also, saved searches behaved like this until recently.

One thing that maybe we can do is to have the initial state of the panel show some other message, not the "Sorry no results found" one. Something like "select an AOI and click 'search' to search the Planet catalog"

I like the idea of the panel showing some different message - just something that lets the user know that there is another action they need to perform before the search will execute.
