This PR fix some issues in cosmic-app-list. The load_applications_for_app_ids function is totally rewritten.
The match_entry function is used to determine if a DesktopEntry should match an id. This algo is used to match 2 strings, which gives good result. Some other metrics are used like the difference between the match length and the two string, and the entropy (does 2 matchs got similar result) .
With this new implementation, yt-music on brave and vscode works fine.
I will make a PR in cosmic-applets soon to demonstrate and link to this
