Initial problem: the extend text is not base-aligned to section name.

What happens: the icon on left, the section name, the extend label and the extend icon are vertically centered (see middle.png).

The proposed change: all cited itens should be bottom aligned.

Other problem: the extend icon on right has dimension of 24x24 pixels and it will seems too high (see bottom.png).

Proposed solution: resize the icon to 12x12 pixels (see bottom-resized.png).

The solution above was applied and the initial problem was solved (see result.png and result2.png).

The new problem: when the section has no expand text (like the Shortcuts section on dash's main screen), the expand icon will seems too low (see problem.png and problem2.png).

Proposed solution:

1. Does not allow the Shortcuts section to be expanded/contrated
2. Does not change the current layout: leaves the texts and icons vertically centered
3. Add an expand text on Shortcuts section
4. Hack dash to center the expand icon if no expand text is defined

What do you think?
