Anatomy of Instant App

A instant app is a Javascript object with following schema:

• name
• description
• queryToData: A function which takes a search query and converts into any data which could be displayed.
• Component: The React component of the app. The data from queryToData is passed as a prop.

These are minor releases i.e. v0.3.0 -> v0.4.0
