Remove flicker on NTP when saving items for later

When adding a suggestion to the Reading List, a visible flicker is seen
on the Reading List section of the NTP because an empty section item is
added to it before replacing it by the new Reading List pages.
This CL prevents this flickering by not adding the transient empty
section item.

There is still a flickering as we are replacing the current items displayed, which indicate that something has happened. This flickering also happens when we are adding once again the first Reading List item displayed. In that case the state of the Reading List section is the same before and after the addition, but there is still a flickering. This is expected as it is treated as a different item in the backend (some properties of the object are changed).

But the flickering of the "That's all" empty item is fixed.
