No results for first search in Search Test Drive causing no results for subsequent searches

Enterprise Dashboard:

Changing Personalization Configuration changes the Placement Selection

The placement selection is being changed by changing the personalization settings. The placement selection should only be changed when user changes it.

This issue has been fixed.

ENG-25431

Enterprise Dashboard:

Entire site name is not legible in new portal layout

Hence this issue has been fixed by showing full site name in the search suggestions and tooltips are provided for selected and non-selected site names.
