Description

*Problem:* The Ti.UI.Android.SearchView has no property to change the hintTextColor. In a light theme the color is always white and you can't see the hintText. *Solution:* Add hintTextColor as a property. Since it is Android-only no parity is needed. *Example*

var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({
	fullscreen: false,
	theme: "Theme.AppCompat.Light"
});

// Use action bar search view
var search = Ti.UI.Android.createSearchView({
	hintText: "Table Search",
	color: "#000",
	hintTextColor: "#999",
        iconifiedByDefault: false
});

var data = [];
data.push(Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({
	title: 'Apple'
}));
data.push(Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({
	title: 'Banana'
}));
data.push(Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({
	title: 'Orange'
}));
data.push(Ti.UI.createTableViewRow({
	title: 'Raspberry'
}));

var tableview = Titanium.UI.createTableView({
	data: data,
	search: search
});

win.add(tableview);
win.open();
