Bug Description

[Description]
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS was released with gnome-documents version 3.18.2.

GNOME has released a bugfix update for the stable 3.18 series: 3.18.3.

[Test cases]
Here are the three things it fixes:

1. Unbreak going back from preview when launched from search provider
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/760124

a. Download a .pdf to ~/Documents or ~/Downloads
b. Wait a few moments for tracker to index the file (tracker is enabled by default in Ubuntu GNOME so this should happen automatically there)
c. From GNOME Shell, open the Activities Overview and search for the pdf you downloaded.
d. Click the result with the Documents logo to the left of it (the result with the File Browser icon next to it will open in Evince instead which is not what we want here).
e. Once Documents has opened, click the back button in the top left of the toolbar.
f. The bug is that it doesn't lead you back to the Documents main screen.

2. Disable Print menu item when unsupported (Bastien Nocera)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758445

a. The upstream bug only notes CBR and CBZ as being affected. Note that those files do not show up in GNOME Documents but show up in GNOME Books and this SRU hides Books by default (LP: #1584522).
b. Download a .cbz. I suggest http://www.bitcartel.com/downloads/martinlutherking.cbz to ~/Documents or ~/Downloads
c. Run gnome-books (from a terminal or Alt+F2)
d. Open the martinlutherking document.
e. In the top right corner, click the menu drop down button.
f. The bug is that the Print button is shown as active (able to be clicked) but doesn't do anything when you click it. The bug fix is that the button is shown greyed out since the document can't be printed by GNOME Books.

3. Try not to open PDFs in GIMP
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/758529
I was unable to reproduce this bug.

[Regression potential]
The only fix I might be concerned about is #3 because I could not reproduce the original bug easily. However I have not seen any issues from it and it was included in GNOME 3.20 and backported to the 3.18 and 3.16 stable branches.

Verified #1.
Downloaded a sample PDF and opened from GNOME Shell search. Back button didn't work. Repeated after I installed proposed update. Back button works.

Verified #2.
Print button doesn't work. After proposed update, Print button is disabled so it's obvious it isn't supported.
