[ckan-dev] Hide empty search facets boxes

[John Glover]

Hi Sean,

You should to be able to specify the facets in the config file (I assume
this feature still exists in 2.0). So you can have something like:

ckan.search_facets = groups tags res_format license_id vocab_xx

Sites without groups can just remove them from this config line.
