[Geary] Geary layout

[Martin Weißhaupt]

Ok, I played around with a few things and noticed that after reverting 
any changes of the file "desktop/org.yorba.geary.gschema.xml" and 
rebuilding geary it does actually start.

But I need an extra entry in the settings for the layout so I added this 
to the file:
     <key name="classic_layout" type="b">
         <default>true</default>
         <summary>enable classic layout</summary>
         <description>True to display classic layout.</description>
     </key>

These 5 lines seem to produce the problem. Is there anything else I must 
do if I want to update the settings?

Best wishes,
Martin
