Add provides to appstream metadata #99

I was browsing the commit log and noticed you changed the id for your appstream metadata. Please add a provides id tag for the old name.

Here's an example: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-tweaks/commit/c553730f

Documentation: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Metadata.html#tag-provides

Specifically, I think this is used by the GNOME Software app to associate reviews posted for the old name to display them in the same place as reviews for the new name.

Hi Jeremy,

thank you for noticing it! I completely missed the paragraph about what causes renaming... I'll fix it right away.
