Desktop NTP motion is a bit off time

Project Member Reported by rachelis@chromium.org, Jun 25 2017

Issue description

From [Implementation review] One Google Bar on the Local NTP

Ainslie: 
The bookmarks bar is visible instantly. The google logo and search box appear next. Then the MV tiles appear. And lastly the OGB section. This timing draws my eye all around the screen and makes the NTP feel brittle. I'd like to understand if there's more we can do to make this either feel instant-across-all-elements or whether we could sort out a choreography with phases that feel more intentional.

Thanks Helene!

Alex, Marc - is this useful in your understanding of the problem?
The three distinct steps don't feel like they were considered as a set. 
1. empty white page 
2. logo + mv tiles flash in
3. OGB fades in 

Moving to local-only might help us resolve #1, and open up other opportunities for Helene et al to consider how all of the elements (today and future) should relate to each other.

Some technical constraints:

- The tiles come in asynchronously (though typically quite fast, on the order of tens of ms). It was a conscious decision to hide the logo and fakebox until the tiles are also there. (The local NTP currently doesn't do this; it shows the logo and fakebox immediately.)

- The OGB comes in asynchronously too, and it involves the network, so can be slow. We definitely don't want to delay showing the page until the OGB is there.
