new-calendar-page: Change timing of URL validation feedback, allow cancelling while typing

Diego Iván M.E requested to merge DiegoIvanME/gnome-calendar:diegoivanme/new-calendar-validation into main

Note from Jeff: should be merged after !423 (merged), preferrably; then this MR here will need to be rebased & resolved. It is also easier/cleaner to test on top of !487 (closed).

Currently, the progress bar is pulsed as soon as the user starts typing, giving the impression that a process is on going. But, in reality, validation is performed 500 ms.

After this changes the progress bar is pulsed only when validation is on-going. The validation timeout was increased to 750ms too, so the users have more time to type without prompting validation.

Also, the user can now cancel the validation/discover by typing into the entry, in case they made a typo, took a pause, or want to delete it, expecting a cancelled operation.

Additionally, the entry progress bar is reset after the operation is completed, cancelled or it fails, so the progress bar stays hidden when it is not necessary.

Fixes #1272 (closed) and #1273 (closed)
