Since [1] when the m2m widget was introduced, when the network latency
is high enough, the `_search()` method can be called several times in
parallel. The former list of existing records is removed before doing
the RPC call, then populated with the results received after the RPC
call returns. With the proper timing and race conditions, this could
lead to having the list cleared several times, then populated several
times with the incoming results.
This commit makes sure the list is cleared after the RPC results are
obtained instead of before.
Steps to reproduce:
- Create and save a blog post with several tags.
- Edit blog post.
- Configure network latency to one second in browser's developer tools.
- Remove one tag.
- Remove another tag after 500ms. (Because the search happens after a
`setTimeout`.)
- Open tag suggestions.
=> List contained the concatenation of the two suggestion lists.
